Pizza Carbonara

This is an awesome pizza, although it can take some time to make.





Start by pan frying or sauteing chicken breasts, set aside when done.

Next start the pizza crust:

Pizza Crust

2 cups warm water

1 Tablespoon Yeast

1 Tablespoon Sugar

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

Bread Flour



In a large metal bowl combine the warm water, yeast and sugar, let stand till the yeast is ready, 10+ minutes. (It's hard to explain when yeast is done.)

Add the olive oil and start stirring in flour. Keep adding and stirring flour until the dough balls up as you stir and it doesn't seem to be taking flour.

Cover the bowl with a towel and let sit for 30 minutes or until the dough has approximately doubled in size.

While the dough is rising make the carbonara sauce and cut the cheese.


Toppings not in the rest of the recipe(s)
Fresh Mozzarella, although if you can't find it or don't want to spend that much on cheese the pre-shredded stuff will work too. Slice the fresh mozz. and place on a plate between two paper towels with another plate on top. Leave for about 20 min.




Easy Carbonara

6 bacon slices, diced
3 tbsp. chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 c. heavy cream

In large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon about 3 minutes or until limp. Add onion; cook 3-5 minutes longer or until bacon is browned, stirring occasionally. Add garlic, cook 30 seconds. Drain all but 1 tablespoon bacon fat from skillet, remove 1-2 strips worth of bacon. Stir in cream; bring just to boiling point. Reduce heat to low and simmer 3 minutes. Once the sauce is done set aside off heat to thicken.

Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Divide out and roll the pizza crust, as thin or thick as you like (I like thin) to fit your baking pans. Place the crust on the pans and cover with the carbonara, then fresh mozzarella, the bacon crumbles and the cooked chicken (diced).
Place in the 400 degree oven and cook till crust is brown around the edges and the cheese is bubbly in the middle.
Slice while still warm and serve.
Not the best Pizza cold, but still tasty.
