2. Cooking Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees F. Oil two 12-inch pizza pans or large baking sheets. Press the dough into a 12-inch round, or 9-by-13-inch rectangle, on each prepared pan. Bake until the dough begins to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the same pan. Add the mushrooms, salt, pepper, and thyme and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are golden, about 5 minutes.
  3. Return the zucchini to the pan, add the wine, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and all the wine has evaporated, about 5 minutes more.
  4. Spread the vegetable mixture on the partially baked pizza crusts. Sprinkle each with Swiss cheese and Parmesan and bake until the cheese melts, about 10 minutes.

Yield: 4 servings

3. Still Hungry?

The mushrooms and zucchini that top this tantalizing pizza can be grilled instead of sauteed, if you prefer. Whichever method you choose, make sure the vegetable mixture is quite dry before you spread it on the pie, or the crust will be soggy.

Notes:

If you prefer to use store-bought pizza shells, such as Boboli, simply start this recipe with Step 2. Spread the topping directly onto the shells in Step 4, no prebaking required.

  • Tasted like an autumn forest.....

    .....and made me feel like a hobbit or a wood elf after foraging some mushrooms. The thyme was the perfect ingredient, and was a great accent to the swiss cheese. I added even more thyme than the recipe called for, simply because it tastes so earthy and rich.

    All together, this pizza is incredibly delicious, especially if made with fresh ingredients and a thin crust. Even using a pre-made dough, however, it did take a while to make all by myself. The solution? Next time I'll make it with the help of one of my wee hobbit friends. ;-)
