Inspired by Peter Reinhart, this pizza is quite amazing. I have had offers of financial backing to open my own pizza shop from friends so they can get this any time they want, not just when I invite them over for pizza. Unfortunately, this isn’t something you can make on a whim, as you need to make the onion marmalade in advance, but it’s worth it. I do it the day before and pick up a Rotisserie chicken from the grocery.
At least 2-3 hours before you will make your pizza, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions in olive oil until they begin to soften. Sprinkle with Kosher salt and continue cooking until the onions just begin to brown.
Sprinkle sugar over onions and toss to combine. Sugar will begin to melt and bubble. Continue cooking until the sugar is a light caramel color.
Clear a spot in the center of the pan and pour in vinegar. Stir to combine. Continue cooking until vinegar thickens, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat, season with black pepper and more salt, if needed, to taste. Allow onion marmalade to cool completely, so it becomes thick enough to make the “sauce” for your pizza.
About 1 hour before you would like to eat, preheat your oven to 450 degrees F with a pizza stone inside. (You can really bake this however you desire, but this is how I do it.)
Coat your pizza peel with cornmeal.
Stretch your pizza dough into an approximate 16 inch circle.
Spread your onion marmalade all over your pizza dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
Cover with shredded mozzarella, and then top with chicken and blue cheese.
Slide your pizza off the peel and on to the pizza stone that is waiting in the oven. Bake until the cheese is brown and bubbly, about 15-17 minutes.
Remove from oven, allow to cool 2-3 minutes, and slice into 8 pieces. Serve immediately.
