Pesto Chicken Pizza

pesto pizzaYou guys, this pizza is so good.  You should probably make it immediately.

Pesto Chicken Pizza

  • 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • pesto (I used TJs)
  • mozzarella, shredded
  • 1 chicken breast, cooked and cut into cubes
  • 1/4 large red onion, thinly sliced
  • sun dried tomatoes
  • optional: red bell pepper, sliced
  1. Preheat oven to 475°
  2. Stretch our pizza dough, and place onto a greased baking sheet.  Cover dough liberally with pesto, then bake for 8-12 minutes, until crust is just beginning to brown.
  3. Cover dough with mozzarella, then top with chicken, red onion, sun dried tomatoes, and bell pepper (if using).  Bake another 8-10 minutes, until cheese is melted and crust is crispy and golden brown.

Then, obviously, eat the entire thing and wonder why you don’t make this for dinner every night.
