Ingredients
- Dough //
- 2 Cups Unbleached Flour
- 1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 to 1 1/4 Cup Water
- 1 tsp./ Half Packet Quick Rise Yeast
- 2 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 tsp. Sea Salt
- 3 tbsp. Fresh Chopped Chives
- Goodies //
- 12 Fresh Figs, Sliced
- 1/2 Cup Soft Goat Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Fresh Shaved Parmesan Reggiano
- 1/4 Cup Red Onion, VERY thinly sliced
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Chives
- 2 Cups Organic Mache (Lambs Lettuce)
- 2 tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Sea Salt and Fresh Ground Pepper
Directions
-
Turn your grill to medium high heat.
-
Make the dough according to instructions on Mark Bitten’s blog. Please note I used 2 Cups Unbleached Flour and 1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour which provided both a chewy and crispy texture when pulled thin enough, I also added fresh chives for a bit of color and zing. This needs to be done 2 hrs. in advance.
-
Once you’ve made your dough, divide it and pull it out to desired size. With your hands, rub a little bit of oil on one side, and put the oiled side down on the grill. Close the lid and grill for about 3 minutes.
-
Flip the dough over and push the dough down with a spatula to create a thinner flatbread (if you desire… I desired). Evenly distribute the sliced figs, goat cheese, parmesan, chives and sliced red onion across the dough. Give it all a generous grind of pepper and sprinkle of salt. Close the lid and grill for another 6 to 8 minutes untill all toppings are melted and there are grill marks on the bottom of the dough.
-
In the meantime, toss the mache lettuce with the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and sprinkle of salt and pepper.
-
Remove the flatbreads and top with a hefty handful of the dressed mache. Chomp away while its hot
