chicken alfredo pizza

are you tired of hearing about my pizza adventures?

too bad.

i made pizza on wednesday,

but i did it the super fast and super easy way.

and i mixed it up a little bit by doing

a chicken alfredo version.

lots of short cuts and hardly any actually cooking.

i bet this took me around 10 minutes to put together.

impressive.
 

 

instead of making my own pizza dough,

i bought a tube.

instead of making my own alfredo sauce,

i bought a jar. 

then i diced up some onion and garlic and

cooked it in a little bit of oil and butter.

i removed the onion and garlic and threw in

some chicken strips.

i browned them on each side for 3 minutes in the

garlicky remains and then cubed the pieces.

i spread out the dough on my pizza pan and

added a little alfredo sauce.

don't add too much because alfredo is runnier than

marinara and i feel like it can make pizza soggy. 

then i sprinkled on my onion and garlic,

(you could totally add mushrooms too,

but ronnie would have killed me.)

and added some seasonings.

[italian seasoning, garlic salt and red pepper]

then i diced up some fresh spinach,

(you could leave it whole,

but ronnie and i don't roll that way.)

added my chicken cubes and

(here's the best part)

sliced up some fresh mozzarella.

waaaaaay better than the stuff shredded in a bag.

and here's a little tip i learned from watching the pioneer woman:

put your fresh mozzarella in the freezer before you start

so by the time you're ready to slice it up,

it's has a solid consistency that makes it easier to cut.

totally worked.
 

 
 

then i threw it in the oven at 425 for about 15 mins.

 

easy easy easy

and ronnie dominated it.

like for real,

we hardly have any left.
