I have always had a reputation for making unique pizzas. I learned how to grill pizza years ago and it was always good and less fat too. Today I made 2 new ones but had to bake them (it was too hot outside and my dough for some reason stuck to the wax paper and I had to go buy dough!)
Here is what I made tonight:
Chicken and mushroom pizza with herbs de provence
Chicken, spinach and hoisin pizza
This is exactly what I made (change as you like)
Makes 3 pizzas
3 pizza crusts
1c. dried porcini mushrooms
5 chicken breast halves cooked and sliced thin horizontally
3 packages sliced mushrooms -2 reg. 1 cremini
1c or so plain soy milk
2T. or so flour
3T. fresh chopped rosemary, thyme and lavender or 1T herbs de provence
1 bag spinach, chopped
1 bunch scallions chopped
1/2c or so hoisin sauce
Pour boiling water over the dried mushrooms, let soften, strain over a bowl and strain the liquid through cheesecloth, set aside and wash and chop the mushrooms
In a large skillet sauté the mushrooms with some salt and garlic, add porcinis too. Divide 1/3 of mushroom mixture in colander. To the rest of the mushrooms in the pan add the flour and stir, then add the porcini liquid and the soy milk until it is a really thick sauce (don't add too much liquid) stir constantly then set aside
In a stock pot use spray and add spinach and scallions and generous salt, wilt and then drain in colander with 1/3 of the mushrooms.
Make 2 pizzas with the mushroom sauce mixture, 2/3 of the chicken and the herbs. (I also put brie cheese on half for my husband and I had a couple teaspoons of it)
Make 1 pizza with hoisin sauce, spinach and mushrooms and rest of chicken.
The secret to this is to have lots of mushrooms so you aren't eating plain dough and missing the cheese. Also put some corn meal on the pan for some texture and make sure to salt well.
