Cooking instruction summary:

Lightly sprinkle both sides of chicken with seasoned salt. Spray a skillet with cooking spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Cook chicken approximately 7 minutes per side, until cooked through. Remove from heat, and slice into thin, bite-sized pieces.Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Roll or stretch dough to fit a full-sized baking sheet. (I line mine with a silicone mat to prevent sticking.)Rinse and dry the skillet used for the chicken, and heat it over medium heat. Melt butter in the hot skillet, and whisk in flour. Very slowly stir in milk a tiny bit at a time, whisking constantly until smooth before adding more. When all the milk is incorporated, continue whisking often and bring to a simmer until thick and bubbly. Turn heat to low, and stir in parmesan, pepper, and salt. Turn off heat, and evenly spread white sauce over the dough.Rinse and dry skillet again. Add olive oil to the skillet, and heat over medium-high heat. Add onions and a pinch of salt, and sauté. When the onions are starting to brown, stir in a couple tablespoons of water. Continue to cook until they are as caramelized as you like. (I cooked mine about 7 minutes total.)Evenly spread chicken, onions and cranberries over the pizza. Tear provolone into 1" wide strips, and arrange evenly over the toppings, and sprinkle feta evenly over the top.Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly and crust is brown around the edges.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
