Best Grilled Chicken Pizza With Mozzarella And Roasted Garlic Recipes

GARLICKY GRILLED CHICKEN PIZZA

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Brush the chicken with some olive oil and season all over with seasoning. Add chicken to the grill, until just cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Remove to a work surface and let cool slightly, then thinly slice the chicken.
• Meanwhile, cut the dough into two pieces and stretch each piece into a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured work surface or use a rolling pin to roll the dough into the circle. Lightly flour the back of a rimmed baking sheet or a pizza peel and transfer the pizza dough to the prepared surface.
• Slide the dough off of the baking sheet onto the grill grates. Close the lid and grill until golden on the bottom side, about 2 minutes. Flip the dough and brush the top with some olive oil, then remove the pizza crust from the grill and place back on the pizza peel or baking sheet, olive oil brushed side up.
• Divide 2 cups of the mozzarella over the top of each pizza. Sprinkle with dried basil. Scatter chicken, red onion, and spinach over the top of each pizza, then sprinkle with feta. Divide the remaining mozzarella over pizzas.
• Slide pizzas back onto the grill, cover, and cook until the cheese is melted about 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove from the grill to a work surface, sprinkle with more seasoning, slice, and serve.

ROASTED GARLIC, CHICKEN AND SPINACH WHITE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Cut head of garlic, about 1/4-inch, to expose tops of garlic cloves. Place garlic head, cut side up, in a sheet of foil. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Fold up all 4 sides of the foil and cover tightly. Place into oven and roast until cloves are golden brown and tender, about 35-40 minutes. Let cool before squeezing cloves from skin; reserve and mince 8 garlic cloves.* Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly coat a baking sheet or pizza pan with olive oil. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken to the skillet and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Let cool before dicing into bite-size pieces. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet. Stir in spinach until wilted, about 2-3 minutes; season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together ricotta cheese, thyme, oregano, basil and reserved garlic cloves; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Working on a surface that has been sprinkled with cornmeal, roll out the pizza into a 12-inch-diameter round. Transfer to prepared baking sheet or pizza pan. Top with mozzarella, dollops of ricotta mixture, chicken and spinach. Place into oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheeses have melted. Serve immediately.
