Chicken Fajita Pizza

A few weeks ago my sister and I went to her friend’s Pampered Chef party.  While there, the consultant whipped up this pizza.  Unfortunately, I wasn’t taking notes and couldn’t find this on their website so I’m not sure if my recipe is right or not…but after tasting it I don’t really care.  It was so good!  We will absolutely be making this again soon!

Don’t mind the funny green pepper line down the middle of my pizza – that was just to separate Christopher’s soy cheese from mine.

INGREDIENTS
1/2 Red pepper
1/2 Green pepper
1/2 Yellow pepper
1 Small Yellow Onion
1 Large Chicken breast
1 1/2T. Taco/Fajita Seasoning
2T. Choulula Hot Sauce
1 Batch Pizza Dough
Cheese of your choice
Fresh Cilantro for garnish

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Bake chicken until thoroughly cooked.  Shred and set aside.

While the chicken is cooking, thinly slice the peppers and onion.  Saute 5-7 minutes.  Add garlic and seasoning, saute another 3 minutes.  Remove from heat and add hot sauce.  Stir to combine.  Allow to cool slightly while the chicken finishes in the oven.

Roll out pizza dough and top with cheese, veggie mix, chicken and more cheese.

Bake 14-18 minutes or until the crust is crispy and the toppings are piping hot.

Top with fresh cilantro, slice and enjoy!

BBQ Chicken Pizza

Back in college, when Christopher could still eat regular pizza, we would always get BBQ chicken pizza from our favorite local place right off campus.  It was to die for!  Thick crust, BBQ sauce, smothered chicken, cheese and red onions…yum!  Tonight we tried to replicate that pizza.  My half had BBQ sauce, Hubs likes regular pizza sauce.

INGREDIENTS:
1 Pizza dough – homemade, in a can or pre-made…anything is good.
Boneless Chicken Tenders
1/2C BBQ Sauce
1/4C Pizza Sauce (if using)
1/4C Cheese – we used soy blend, but feel free to use anything you like
Red Onion Slices

DIRECTIONS:
Marinade chicken tenders in your favorite BBQ sauce.

Cook tenders over medium high heat until no longer pink.

Cut into small bite-size pieces and allow to cool slightly.

Prepare pizza dough and put in pan of your choice (a cookie sheet with sides works well, so does 2 pie plates – my personal favorite).

Top with BBQ sauce (or pizza sauce if you’re nutty like my Husband).

Smother with cheese, chicken, red onion and a little more cheese.

Bake for 10-14 minutes at 400 degrees…until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is warm and crispy.
