Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large ball (store-bought or homemade) Pizza dough
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 large (minced) Garlic cloves
- 1 cup (shredded or diced) Cooked chicken breast
- 0.33 cup Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup (grated) Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup (thinly sliced) Red onion
- 0.5 cup (optional) Baby spinach
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle and carefully transfer it to a piece of parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat the olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring until the cheese melts and the mixture thickens into a creamy garlic sauce.
Spread the garlic sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
Evenly distribute the shredded or diced cooked chicken and sliced red onion over the garlic sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the toppings, followed by the baby spinach (if using).
Season the pizza with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano for a flavorful finish.
Carefully slide the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
