Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 prepared refrigerated pizza dough (your own or one from your favorite pizza place)
  • Cornmeal, for sprinkling on pizza pan
  • Olive oil (for drizzling
  • 1/4 to 1/2 pound pancetta, chopped (I use bacon)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large garlic clove, grated
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 egg yolks (beaten must be from large or x-large eggs)
  • 1 1/2 to 2 cups shredded provolone cheese
  • Handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.

  • Step 2: Roll out your dough into a thin round or square shape. Sprinkle some cornmeal onto your baking sheet, and then place dough on top. Drizzle with olive oil and prick dough with fork. Place in the oven and bake for about 7 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside (this can be done way in advance so you can have it ready for when you want to finish baking and serving it).

  • Step 3: Heat some olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place pancetta (or bacon) in the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from the pan and cool.

  • Step 4: In a bowl, mix eggs with ricotta, Romano cheese, garlic, and black pepper. Spread the mixture over your pizza crust. Top with provolone cheese and pancetta (or bacon).

  • Step 5: Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly. Scatter fresh parsley on top and serve.
