GARLIC CHICKEN PIZZA

Category: Pizza

1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half
Salt and pepper
Cooking oil spray
3 tbsp chicken broth
2 tbsp butter, softened
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp chopped green onion
1/2 tsp dried basil
1 (10 oz) can refrigerated pizza crust dough
2 Roma (plum) tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4-1/2 cup mozzarella

Season chicken breast with salt and pepper. Place in non-stick skillet sprayed with cooking oil spray. Cook until no longer pink inside. If chicken starts to stick use chicken broth to deglaze the pan.

Meanwhile, in a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with garlic, onion and basil. When well blended added a spoonful of ricotta cheese and blend thoroughly. Let cool.

Preheat the oven to 350. Roll out the pizza dough, place onto a pizza pan or other baking sheet, and spread the butter mixture over the surface using the back of a spoon. Arrange chicken on top, then dot with ricotta cheese. Top with tomato slices, parsley, Parmesan cheese and mozzarella. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until crust is browned and center is cooked through.
