Fig & Goat Cheese Pizza

Posted on by Bruce Barone

So delicious!

Heat cast iron pan in oven while oven preheats. Take pan out of oven when done preheating. Lightly oil pan. Spread dough in pan. Be careful! Lightly oil dough. Bake for 10-15 minutes. Take pan out of oven. Spread caramelized onions over dough (Yes. I made caramelized onions, too!), along with figs (I used 5, halved and cut into thirds.) and crumbled goat cheese (I used about 4 ounces.) Put back in oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes.

Enjoy with some arugula. YUM!

Ingredients

  • For the Filling:
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium Vidalia onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 Yukon Gold potato, thinly sliced
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 cups arugula, roughly chopped
  • 1 package of Smoked Salmon from Boston Smoked Fish Company, roughly chopped
  • For the Eggs:
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • For the Topping:
  • 3 ounces fresh goat cheese, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Parmigiano-Reggiano or Asiago cheese, finely grated (1/2 cup)

Directions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook onion until soft and translucent, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove onions and add remaining tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter. Add potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Saute until they begin to turn golden brown, about 4 minutes. Return onions to skillet in an even layer. Sprinkle evenly with basil and parsley.
  2. Heat broiler. Use a whisk to lightly beat eggs in a large bowl, then whisk in cream, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
  3. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Cook, using a heatproof flexible spatula to stir and push egg from edges to center of pan so runny parts run underneath, until eggs are almost set (they should still be wet on top but otherwise set throughout), 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Drop dollops of goat cheese on top of frittata, distributing evenly and pressing down into eggs a bit with the spatula. Sprinkle evenly with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Broil until frittata is set on top and has puffed slightly, and cheese is melted and golden, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
  5. Gently run the spatula around the edges and underneath the frittata and carefully slide out of pan onto a plate. Slice into six wedges and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
