Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 1.5 cups Cooked chicken or turkey (shredded or diced)
- 4 slices Thinly sliced deli ham
- 1.5 cups Shredded Swiss cheese
- 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat.
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into your desired shape (round or rectangular). Transfer it to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes until a smooth paste forms.
Gradually pour in the milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the béchamel sauce thickens.
Stir in the Dijon mustard, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Spread the béchamel sauce evenly onto the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
Evenly distribute the shredded chicken or turkey over the sauce, followed by the slices of ham. Tear or cut the ham into smaller pieces if necessary.
Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese and mozzarella cheese over the toppings.
Carefully slide the pizza (on the parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Slice and serve warm. Enjoy your Chicken or Turkey Cordon Blue Pizza!
