Ingredients
-
2 pizza crusts made from Pamela’s Pizza Crust Mix - follow Pizza Crust recipe
Toppings:
- ½ cooked chicken breast or chicken meat, chopped
- ½ to ¾ cups prepared pesto sauce
- ½ to 1 whole roasted bell pepper
- 1½ to 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
- Olive oil, salt & pepper
Directions
Place rack in top position in oven. Pizza stones are suggested for the best crust. Pre-heat oven to hottest temperature- 475 to 500 degrees.
Make pizza crusts according to directions on the Pizza crust mix bag. If using parchment, place directly on top rack, on preheated heavy-duty baking sheet or on pizza stone. Par-bake for 8 to 10 minutes, remove from oven and discard parchment.
Top pizza crust with pesto sauce. Spread about 1 cup cheese over sauce, then place cooked chicken on top of cheese. Top with strips of roasted red pepper, and add a sprinkling of more cheese.
Place pizza back in oven directly on rack or pizza stone without parchment. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Cut & serve.
