Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using a thin cloth, coat a large sheet pan with a thin layer of sesame oil. Place the pizza dough on a clean counter and shape the mound into a rectangle. Using palms, press the dough out – starting from the center and pushing outward – forming a larger and thinner rectangle. Then pick up the dough and hold it in the air, pulling and shaping every edge into a large rectangle, allowing gravity to do most of the work stretching the dough. When the dough is about the size of the sheet pan, place it in the pan, pressing the dough out further to fill in every edge of the pan. Brush the remaining sesame oil all over the dough. Sprinkle the sesame seeds and garlic powder all over the dough. Arrange the shallot evenly across the dough. Next arrange the asparagus and mushrooms over the dough. Add the goat cheese, and finally sprinkle on the crushed red pepper. Season the pizza with salt. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until edges of crust turn golden brown. Use a pizza cutter to slice the flatbread, and serve.
Wash, trim off 1″, and peel asparagus stem to reveal a beautiful green interior. This is tedious, but will look so lovely. Put on a baking sheet, add salt, pepper and oil. Mix it up with your hands. Bake in a 400-degree oven for 7 minutes. When they are done, sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
Variation 1: For an elegant presentation, you could wrap the asparagus in green onion that has been dipped in hot water to make it pliable. Create a bunch for each guest. Just make sure to turn them over half way through cooking.
Variation 2: If you have any asparagus left over, chop them up for a simple and elegant salad of greens, tomato, red onion, goat cheese and homemade vinaigrette.
1/4 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup fat-free, lower-sodium chicken broth
Preheat oven to 350°. Heat a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add spinach to pan; cook 1 minute or until spinach wilts, tossing constantly. Place spinach in a colander; press until barely moist. Wipe pan clean.
Combine spinach, cheese, nuts, thyme, juice, and garlic. Cut a horizontal slit through the thickest portion of each chicken breast half to form a pocket. Stuff 3 tablespoons filling into each pocket. Seal with wooden picks. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 3 minutes on each side or until brown. Add broth, and cover pan. Place pan in oven. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until done.
