CARBONARA PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F with a pizza stone on the highest rack.
• Make the egg cream by whisking together the Parmesan, eggs and a big sprinkle of black pepper until thick and foamy.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the pancetta. Cook over high heat until crunchy and fragrant, about 6 minutes.
• Stretch the dough on a floured work surface to an 11-inch circle. Spoon the egg cream onto the center of the pizza and spread over the dough with a spoon. Evenly distribute the pancetta on top and sprinkle over the mozzarella.
• Transfer the dough onto the pizza stone and bake until puffy, about 6 minutes, then turn on the broiler and broil until the crust takes on some color, 45 seconds.
• Remove the pizza and top with a sprinkle of pecorino, more crushed black pepper and a swirl of olive oil.

CARBONARA PIZZA

Steps:

• Prepare the pizza dough up until the point when you are ready to roll it out and bake (here are the directions for my Whole Wheat Pizza Crust).
• Place a rack in the top-most position of your oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (if using a pizza stone, preheat the stone also). If your oven does not heat this high, preheat to the highest possible setting.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-low. Once the skillet is hot, add the diced bacon and cook until crisp-tender and the fat has rendered; about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and lightly pat dry.
• Discard all but 2 teaspoons of bacon fat from the skillet, then increase the heat to medium-high. Add the mushrooms and cook until tender, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll and stretch the dough into a 13-inch circle (if using a pizza stone or round pizza pan) or an 11x14-inch rectangle (if using a baking sheet). If using a pizza stone, for easy transfer, lift the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper set on the back of a baking sheet. (If using a baking sheet, line your pan with parchment paper and place the dough on that).
• Top the dough with the mozzarella, half of the Parmesan, and all of the bacon and mushrooms, leaving a 1-inch border around all sides.
• Make small wells in the center of the toppings for the eggs. One at a time, crack the eggs into a small bowl, then carefully pour into the wells.
• Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan. If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the pizza (paper and all) onto the stone.
• Bake the pizza on the top rack until the crust is golden, the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the eggs are almost (but not quite) cooked all the way through, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand a few minutes. Sprinkle generously with black pepper, then top with fresh parsley. Enjoy immediately.
