I made this pizza once for a family gathering at Christmas. Now, I have been told that if we are having any kind of get together I am required to bring this delicious pizza. It’s easy to make, but looks like you slaved over it. The recipe is for one pizza, but is easily doubled if you need more. You can prepare the chicken the day before and keep in the fridge if you’re having a party.
Chicken Alfredo Pizza Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 chicken breast trimmed of fat
- 1 tube of pizza crust
- 1 jar of Alfredo sauce
- 1 bag of shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions:
- Place chicken breast in medium sauce pan and add cold water until the water level is about 1 inch above the chicken.
- Place lid on pan and turn stove onto high.
- Bring water to a boil and allow to boil for 7 to 10 minutes depending on size of chicken breast. Chicken should be cooked completely.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Prepare your pizza dough by rolling out onto pizza stone or cookie sheet and poke dough in several places with a fork to avoid bubbles.
- Remove chicken from the water, place into a medium size bowl and turn stove off.
- Shred the chicken. You can do this by whatever method you prefer (two forks, hands etc). I have found the Mix n Chop from Pampered Chef is wonderful for shredding chicken.
- Add about 1/3 cup of the alfredo sauce to shredded chicken.
- Spread 1/2 to 2/3 cups of alfredo sauce onto pizza dough.
- Spoon chicken on top of sauce to cover the entire pizza.
- Top with mozzarella cheese so that the cheese covers the entire pizza.
- Bake in oven for approximately 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and slightly brown in spots.
- Remove from oven and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes before eating.
