Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. After
15-30 seconds, add mushrooms and toss to coat.
Sauté for 8-10 minutes, or until substantially reduced

Place on a baking sheet and bake for 7-9 minutes, or

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Grate the peel from 1 lemon. Peel and thinly slice the
remaining 3 lemons and remove the seeds. Set aside.
On a lightly floured surface, pat the dough out, forming
a thin 10- to 12-inch-round crust. Brush with oil and
sprinkle with the grated lemon peel.
In a large skillet, heat enough oil to coat the pan over
medium heat. Add lemon slices, garlic, jalapeños and
bell pepper; sauté for 2 minutes. Spread the mixture
