Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Dough

  • 1 store-bought or homemade pizza dough

Garlic Chicken

  • 1 lb chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Creamy White Sauce

  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Cheese & Toppings

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh parsley or basil, chopped, for garnish
  • Olive oil, for brushing crust

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Chicken: Marinate bite-sized chicken pieces in minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let sit for at least 15 minutes. Cook in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Set aside and keep warm.
  2. Make the Creamy White Sauce: In a small saucepan, gently melt the cream cheese over low heat. Add minced garlic and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
  3. Prepare the Pizza Dough: Roll out pizza dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone. Brush edges with olive oil for a golden crust.
  4. Assemble the Pizza: Evenly spread the creamy white sauce over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously, then evenly distribute the garlic chicken pieces on top.
  5. Bake the Pizza: Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Bake pizza for 12 to 15 minutes until crust is crisp and golden and cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
  6. Finish and Serve: Remove pizza from oven, sprinkle fresh parsley or basil over the top. Let cool for a couple of minutes, then cut into slices and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for smooth sauce spreading and easier dough stretching.
  • Avoid overloading toppings to keep crust from becoming soggy.
  • Pre-cook chicken thoroughly to keep it juicy and fully cooked after baking.
  • Brush crust with olive oil for enhanced color and subtle flavor.
  • Use a pizza stone or baking steel for a crisp, wood-fired style crust.
