Ingredients

  • 6 Ounces Fingerling Potatoes (see Note)
  • Salt
  • 3 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons minced red onion
  • 6 slices smoked bacon, cooked crisp, drained, and chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely grated asiago cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 pound (8 ounces) phyllo dough, thawed
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Put the potatoes in a small saucepan, cover with water and add a little salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender. Drain, cool, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Set aside. Put the thyme, onions, bacon, and cheeses in separate small bowls and set aside.

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats. Place three phyllo circles on each prepared baking sheet.

Lightly brush all six circles with melted butter. Place another circle of dough on top of each of the first circles and brush again with melted butter. Continue until all six pizza circles are stacked with six layers of phyllo and butter. Put three to four slices of potato on top of each pizza stack. Sprinkle thyme, onions, and bacon over the potato slices, and top lightly with the two cheeses. Season to taste with pepper. Bake until medium golden brown, making sure the centers and bottoms of each crust are also golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut each pizza into 4 wedges using a sharp chefs knife or pizza wheel. Serve immediately. Serves 6.
