Smoky Margherita with fresh thyme

Method

1. Start by prepping your pizza dough, olive oil, mozzarella so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the scallions in a little butter until translucent.
3. Turn the heat up, add the margherita, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Fold in the olive oil and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the white wine, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with cracked black pepper right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
