Beet Bacon And Herbed Goat Cheese Flatbread Food

HERBED FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, rosemary, and thyme in the bowl of an upright mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the butter and mix on low speed until incorporated, about 2 minutes. With the machine running, slowly add the water until the mixture forms a dough, adding more water, if needed, 1 tablespoon at a time. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Form into disc shapes and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each piece of dough into an 8 to 10-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Brush each circle with olive oil and grill for 4 minutes each side. Remove the flatbread from the grill and cool slightly before serving.

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Pour in the Marsala and season with salt and pepper. Continue cooking until the mushrooms are cooked down and the liquid is mostly gone, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in 2 tablespoons of the parsley. Set aside.
• Put the flatbreads on a baking sheet. Brush with the pesto, then top with the mozzarella, mushroom mixture and goat cheese. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
• Bake until the flatbreads are heated through and the cheese is melted, bubbly and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes.
