Scatter over the peppers and watercress and crumble over the goats cheese.
Mix the remaining tablespoon of pesto with a tablespoon of oil from the peppers and drizzle it over the pizzas. Scatter the olives over.
Cut each pizza into wedges or slices and serve.
Recommended wine: Sangiovese, Barbera Wine, Shiraz
Pizzan on the menu? Try pairing with Sangiovese, Barbera Wine, and Shiraz. The best wine for pizza depends on the toppings! Red sauce pizza will call for a red wine with some acidity, such as a barberan or sangiovese. Add pepperoni or sausage and you can go bolder with a syrah. One wine you could try is Ricasoli Castello di Brolio Chianti Classico. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 46 dollars.
