Chicken Alfredo Pizza

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 1 ball of pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce (creamy, garlicky)
  • 12 cloves fresh garlic, minced or 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Toppings

  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Finishing Touch

  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing crust)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness and transfer it to a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  2. Spread the Alfredo Sauce: Generously spread a layer of creamy Alfredo sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough to create a rich, flavorful base.
  3. Add the Chicken and Cheese: Scatter cooked chicken pieces over the sauced dough, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly for a gooey, cheesy finish.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Bake the pizza in a preheated oven at 450°F (230°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly with light brown spots.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven, top with fresh basil or parsley, optionally drizzle with olive oil, slice, and serve immediately for best taste.

Notes

  • Pre-cook the chicken thoroughly and season well before adding to the pizza.
  • Avoid using too much Alfredo sauce to prevent a soggy crust; apply just enough for creamy coverage.
  • Use a preheated pizza stone to achieve a crispier crust.
  • Add fresh herbs like basil or parsley after baking to maintain vibrant flavor.
  • Allow the pizza to rest for a couple of minutes before cutting to keep the cheese from sliding off.
