Rhubarb and Pancetta Pizza
- 1 whole Pizza Crust (homemade Or Purchased)
- 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
- 3 ounces, weight Diced Pancetta (or Thick Cut Bacon)
- 1 cup Diced Red Onion
- 1- 1/2 cup Rhubarb, Peeled And Diced
- 1 cup Chopped Red Apple
- 2 teaspoons Fresh Rosemary, Minced
- 1/2 cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Walnuts, Very Finely Chopped
- Prepare your favorite pizza crust dough.
- I like a deep dish whole wheat, but any type will work.
- The listed prep time includes the time needed for homemade dough to rise, but store-bought dough will work just as well.
- While the dough is rising, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Add diced pancetta and cook until it begins to turn a golden brown, about five minutes.
- (If you dont like pancetta or you dont have it on hand, you can substitute diced thick cut bacon.)
- Drain excess fat from the pan and then add red onion.
- Cook until the onion is translucent, about three minutes.
- Add rhubarb, apple and rosemary to the mixture and cook until the fruit is just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes.
- I dont peel the apple, but you can if you must.
- Remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Prepare a pizza pan and roll or press out your dough.
- Spread the pancetta/fruit mixture directly onto the dough.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the mixture.
- Dont go overboard with the cheese!
- (This isnt that kind of pizza.)
- Finally, sprinkle the finely chopped walnuts evenly over the cheese.
- Bake the pizza for 15 minutes, or until the crust is cooked and the cheese is golden brown.
