Carbonara inspired pizza

Pizza Dough – Recipe here. I used the same recipe but stretch out the dough thinner than usual because I feel that this pizza would fit a thin crust better.

.

For the sauce, I used this recipe from The Cooking Photographer as a guideline.

Here is what I used and did:

Garlic cream sauce:

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon butter

2 garlic cloves (minced)

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

1/3 cup Romano Cheese (or Parmesan, add a pinch of salt if using Parmesan)

1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

.

Step 1: Melt butter and olive oil

Step 2: Add minced garlic, saute till fragrant (not browned or burnt)

Step 3: Turn heat to medium low and add cream and pepper

Step 4: Add cheese and whisk constantly

Step 5: Reduce sauce until thick consistency.

For the pizza (enough for a medium pizza):

1 chicken breast (cooked and cut up)

6 strips of bacon

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1/2 cup chopped parsley

Parmesan cheese (I used Asiago cheese because that is what I had in the fridge but I think Parmesan cheese would taste better)

.

Step 1 – Prepare dough. Let rise for about 5 minutes, pop into 425F for about 5 minutes.
