Portability is something many home pizza makers, chefs, and community members really prize about their Ooni ovens. Food writer and author Gill Meller recently really demonstrated his approach to using his oven to marry ingredients, seasonality, and scene by making this scallop, bacon, chive, and Parmesan pizza using fresh seafood...
Method
Prepare your dough ahead of time.
Fire up your Ooni Pizza Oven. While it preheats, place your skillet pan inside with the butter and olive oil. When it starts bubbling, add the onions and a good pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring regularly, for 15 to 20 minutes, (or until the onions are soft and just beginning to caramelise at their edges). If the onions are cooking too quickly, remove the pan and finish cooking in the residual heat. Set to one side.
Lightly dust your peel with flour or semolina. Stretch the dough out to 12 inches on the peel.
Add half the lardons and tender onions.
Slice the scallops in half around their circumference and arrange the pieces over the bacon and onions. Finish with freshly grated Parmesan and chopped chives.
Check that the temperature on the stone is between 400 to 450˚C (752°F to 842˚F). Slide the pizza into the oven and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until crisp, golden and bubbling. Remove the pizza to a plate or board, and trickle over a little more olive oil. Slice, repeat for the remaining pizza and serve.
