Semi Homemade White Chicken Pizza

When I began my grocery shopping today, I had full intentions on making my own pizza dough. It is so simple and delicious. Guess I will have to show you that recipe some other day because the grocery was out of instant yeast! I know… I couldn't believe it either. I also opted to sue rotisserie chicken instead of cooking my own. Now you see where the "semi-homemade" comes from. If you prefer, you can boil 2 chicken breasts and use that in place of the rotisserie chicken. 

Because I already had this recipe on my mind, I stuck to my guns and opted for store bought dough. Our grocery store, Publix, has freshly made dough in the bakery section that is ready to go. Can't get more simple than that, and hey, it made dinner go quite a bit faster.

Who doesn't love pizza? It is just so delicious any way you make it. Hubs was a little skeptical when he didn't see red sauce in my pan when he got home from work, but I won him over with my garlic sauce.

Lets make some pizza! Printable Recipe Here!

Semi-Homeade White Chicken Pizza 


Ingredients:

Your favorite pizza dough
2 cloves garlic
2 T olive oil
1/4 t dried parsley
1/4 t dried thyme
1/4 t dried oregano
1/4 t black pepper
1/2 cup almond milk (you can use cow's milk)
2 t corn starch
2 t flour
2 T fresh basil
2 cups cooked chicken
fresh mozzarella
pinch of salt and pepper 

What to do:

Preheat your oven to 400°

Mince your garlic.

Chiffonade the basil. This is simply rolling the leaves and cutting long strips. 
Slice the mozzarella. 

Add garlic and olive oil to pan.


Sauté over low heat until fragrant, about a minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic. 

Add your milk, parsley, thyme, oregano, and pepper to the sauté pan. 

Add in corn starch and flour. 

Stir continually until the sauce begins to thicken, 3-5 minutes, and remove from heat.


Roll your pizza dough out. Place the dough on a baking sheet greased with olive oil. You can always use a pizza stone here.

Pour your sauce over the dough and spread evenly.

Add your additional toppings: chicken, mozzarella, and basil. Sprinkle a little extra salt and pepper on top.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is browned. 

Slice it up and a dig in! Hope you enjoy!

Thanks Y'all!
