Ingredients:

1     tablespoon    extra-virgin olive oil
                    more for drizzling
1                   red onion
                    Salt
                    Freshly-ground black pepper
                    Bread-Machine Pizza Dough
                    cornmeal
1/4   pound         goat cheese
6                   asparagus spears
                    spears cooked till tender, cut 2" pieces
2     tablespoons   freshly-grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1     tablespoon    chopped fresh oregano
6     slices        prosciutto - (paper-thin)

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Place a cast-iron pizza pan in an oven and preheat to 450 degrees.
In a sauté pan over medium heat, warm the 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer the onion to a bowl.
Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round. Lightly dust a baking peel with cornmeal and lay the dough on top. Lightly brush the dough with olive oil and spread the onion on top, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Scatter the goat cheese over the onion. Scatter the asparagus on top, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the Parmigiano-Reggiano and half of the oregano.
This recipe yields 2 servings.
Comments: When buying asparagus, look for firm stalks with tips that are tightly closed. The cut end should look freshly cut and not too dried out. Cook asparagus as soon as possible after purchase. If you must store it, set the stalks upright in a glass of water (like you would a bouquet of flowers) and refrigerate.
