Makes: 1 (12-inch) pizza
Cost: $16

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Large rimmed baking sheet or baking stone/steel
  • Pizza peel (optional)

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 shallot thinly sliced
  • 10 ounces cremini or baby bella mushrooms stemmed and sliced
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 ball pizza dough
  • 4 ounces brie cheese (or up to 6 ounces), cut into very thin wedges
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F (if using a baking sheet) or as high as it will go (if using a baking stone/steel; place the stone/steel in the oven before you start preheating).
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shallot, cook for a few minutes, just until it softens, then add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, just until the mushrooms release their liquid, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • If you're using a baking stone/steel, turn the oven to Broil on high.
  • Stretch or roll out your dough to a 12-inch circle, then transfer it to an oiled baking sheet or a lightly floured pizza peel (if using a baking stone/steel).
  • Top the dough with the mushrooms, spreading them out in an even layer, then add the cheese. Season with a pinch of salt and a grind or two of pepper.
  • Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake until the crust is golden and the cheese has browned in spots—8 to 10 minutes on the baking sheet, 6 to 8 minutes on the baking stone/steel.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven, then sprinkle with the parsley. Slice and serve.
