Anjou Pear and Feta Pizza

2 Anjou Pears
2 Large Shallots
1/2 c Bulgarian-style Feta
1/4 c Parmesan
1 Crispy Pizza Crust
Balsamic Vinegar
Olive Oil
Handful of Arugula

Start with a homemade thin crust pizza dough. My favorite so far is listed above.

Slice two large shallots and saute in oil (or a few tablespoons of bacon fat) until translucent. Deglaze the pan with balsamic vinegar.

Crumble feta (I like Bulgarian varieties) over dough.

Slice pears very thin and spread over cheese.

Sprinkle sea salt and freshly ground black pepper over the pears.

Drizzle a few tablespoons of high quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the pizza.

Add shallots.

Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, or as directed by your crust recipe.

Remove from oven and cover with fresh arugula.

Drizzle a little more olive oil over the pizza and serve!

Yum!

*This is also really great if you mix all these prepared ingredients as a salad instead of putting them on pizza dough!

What I drank:
Bele Casel Prosecco, Montello e Colli Asolani DOC
