Broccoli Chicken Pizza image

This was inspired by a broccoli cheese stuffed potato recipe I found, but it seemed to be a little labor intensive, so I decided it would work better as pizza. This is an original "sbera007" creation! We were serving 6 so we let our dough rise so it would spread into a jelly roll pan. If using a store bought dough, I would double the dough. Feel free to half the topping for 4 people and use a single store bought dough. Halving the recipe will alter the cooking time a little bit. (NOTE: I included the time for the dough to rise in the recipe time. This will be different if you use a different pizza crust).

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pizza crust (I use No-Knead Food Processor Thin Crust Pizza Dough)
2 cups broccoli (steamed and chopped)
1/2 lb boneless chicken breast

oregano (to taste)
basil (to taste)

  • While dough is rising or sitting, steam broccoli and cook chicken with olive oil, oregano and basil to taste, until no longer pink.
  • Spread the dough into a prepared jelly roll pan.
  • Bake for about ten minutes.
  • Meanwhile, chop cooled chicken into small chunks and chop steamed broccoli.
  • Combine chicken, Ricotta cheese, broccoli, 1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, dry mustard, and crushed red pepper.
