Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast
- 1 cup fresh broccoli florets
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or rectangle, depending on your baking equipment.
Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal if using a pizza stone.
Brush the surface of the dough with the olive oil, spreading evenly to the edges.
In a medium bowl, toss the cooked chicken breast with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper, then distribute the seasoned chicken over the pizza dough.
Blanch the broccoli florets by placing them in boiling water for 1 minute, then immediately transferring them to an ice bath to maintain their bright green color. Pat the florets dry and scatter them evenly over the pizza.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken and broccoli, followed by the Parmesan cheese.
Carefully transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve hot and enjoy your flavorful Broccoli Chicken Pizza!
