Step 1: Prepare Mushrooms and Chives

Thinly slice the mushrooms. Finely chop the chives and set aside for garnish.

Step 2: Sauté Mushrooms

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until they are browned and softened.

Step 3: Prepare Pizza Dough

Lightly dust a clean surface with semolina. Place the pizza dough on the semolina and gently press and roll it out into your desired pizza shape and thickness using a rolling pin.

Step 4: Assemble the Pizza

Spread the ricotta cheese evenly over the rolled-out pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Distribute the sautéed mushrooms over the ricotta. Grate Parmesan cheese generously over the mushrooms. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 5: Cook the Pizza

Carefully transfer the assembled pizza onto a pizza peel. Place the pizza into a preheated pizza oven (or conventional oven at its highest setting). Cook at 400°C (750°F) with a medium flame for approximately 2 minutes, rotating the pizza frequently to ensure even cooking and a golden-brown crust.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Once the pizza is cooked and the crust is golden and bubbly, remove it from the oven. Garnish with the fresh chopped chives. Slice the pizza and serve immediately. Bon appétit!
