• Ready In: 25 mins
• Yields: 3 pizzas

Ingredients

• 3  pieces  pizza dough
• 3  tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2  slices prosciutto, sliced in strips
• 2  garlic cloves, chopped
• 2  sprigs fresh rosemary, needles striped from the stem
• 1  lb  assorted  wild mushroom, such as crimini, portobello, shiitake, and oyster, coarsely chopped
•  kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
• 2 (4 ounce)  logs  goat cheese
• 2  cups  shredded fontina
• 1⁄2 cup  freshly grated  pecorino cheese

Directions

1. Make the pizza dough as directed in the master recipe. Stick a pizza stone in the oven and preheat them to 500 degrees F.
2. Coat a saute pan with the olive oil and place over medium heat.
3. When the oil gets hazy, add the prosciutto strips, stir to render out the ham's fat and flavor. Toss in the garlic and rosemary, saute for a minute until fragrant.
4. Add the mushrooms, cook and stir until they've released their moisture and are nicely browned, about 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
5. Crumble goat cheese evenly on the crust, scatter sauteed mushrooms all around, and top with shredded fontina.
6. Slide the pizza onto the hot stone in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and crisp, and the cheese is bubbly.
7. Before cutting the pizza into slices, grate pecorino over the whole thing!
