How to Fix Simple Chicken Pizza

SIMPLE, Elegant and Tasty. Make this quick and easy recipe for Chicken Alfredo Pizza. We are talking about dinner in roughly 20 minutes.

When sharing recipes with a friend, she clued me in that its the quality of the Alfredo Sauce that makes all the difference. Newman's Own, Bertolli or other specialty Alfredo sauce should work.

You can vary the bread base and the type of store bought chicken to vary the flavors. Mediterranean or Italian Chicken on Rosemary bread is to die for.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 store bought or leftover chicken made at home.
• 1 Bread for pizza base - you can substitute Boboli pizza shells
• 1 jar Bertolli Alfredo Sauce
• Green peppers (optional)
• Mushrooms - Shitake or portabella baby mushrooms are great
• optional 1 onion sliced or diced small and caramelized in separate pan
• 2 cups of Pizza Cheese or fine shredded cheddar cheese. A smoky cheese goes well with BBQ.

1. Set oven to 375. You can vary the bread and toppings to your tastes. I use Rosemary Foccacia Bread cut into fourths for Mediterranean chicken toppings. For BBQ chicken I use French Bread Rolls split in half lengthwise. Use your imagination!
   
   Place split bread bases on Pizza Pan or cookie sheet. (pizza pan preferred)

2. Spread Alfredo sauce on each bread base or pizza shell. Make sure to spread evenly to the edges to avoid dry spots. Because bread absorbs the sauce, you can add a little more sauce than if you were spreading on pizza dough shell.

3. Top pizzas with bits of Chicken, add desired vegetables and a sprinkle with 1-2 fistfuls of cheese. Many cooks put the cheese on just after the sauce. We prefer it on top of the chicken and vegetables.

4. Place Pan with pizzas in oven for 10-15 minutes. It is simple to tell when its done as the cheese should be turning brown.

Tips & Warnings

• Vary the flavor of cheese and grate yourself
• Choose a GOOD brand of Alfredo sauce - do not skimp
• Vary the flavor of chicken and breads On a Friday night have some friends and family over and have a contest for creating individual pizza

on 8/14/2009 I am realizing that I need to make pizza soon! Easy to follow recipe and I like the little tips about the sauce and bread types. Whenever we grill chicken breasts we always do a couple extra. We slice them and save for later use - now I have one more use : ). P.S. I like how you measure - "fistful" is definitely a form of measurement in our house too.
