Bechamel / Shredded Mozzarella / Rosemary Mushrooms / Pancetta / Caramelized Onions / Chicken Pizza Recipe

Pizza Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Bechamel Sauce

   In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes to create a roux. Gradually pour in the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Continue to cook until the mixture thickens. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

2. 2

   Caramelize the Onions

   In a skillet, add a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes. Set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Mushrooms and Pancetta

   In the same skillet, add the pancetta and cook until crispy. Add the sliced mushrooms and fresh rosemary, cooking until the mushrooms are browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pizza

   Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough and place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the bechamel sauce evenly over the dough. Layer on the shredded mozzarella, followed by the cooked chicken, pancetta, mushrooms, and caramelized onions.

5. 5

   Bake the Pizza

   Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
