Brunch Pizza with Scrambled

Eggs and Smoked Salmon

Makes 2 servings

INGREDIENTS

6 ounces Pizza Dough (see separate recipe in Dough & Crust section) Chili Garlic Oil (see separate recipe in Sauces & Dressings section)

4 large eggs 1/4 cup milk

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

METHOD

Pizzas

1Place a pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven and preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

2On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll out the dough to an 8-inch round. Place the dough on a pizza peel that has been dusted with flour or semolina (you can also place on a cookie sheet). Lightly brush the surface of the dough with the chili oil. Place on the pizza stone and bake until the bottom begins to turn golden brown, but the pizza is not cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.

3In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Place a nonstick 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot add the olive oil and butter and cook until the butter is melted. Add the egg mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until the eggs are slightly set, but still fairly undercooked, about 4 minutes. The eggs will cook further in the oven so it is important not to overcook them. Remove from the heat and remove from the pan to stop the cooking.

4Spread the eggs on the pizza dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Scatter the mozzarella cheese and Fontina cheese evenly over the eggs. Return to the oven and cook just until the cheese melts and is bubbly, about 5 minutes.

5Remove the pizza from the oven and transfer to a firm surface. Arrange the smoked salmon slices over the surface of the pizza, covering completely. Garnish with the chopped chives and salmon eggs.
