Roasted Garlic Chicken Pesto Pizza
Adapted from THIS recipe
I have to say that this is the best pizza I have ever made. (Hence the taking pictures of my dinner and blogging about it while Hubby is doing the dishes)
Ingredients:
- pizza dough
- 1/2 cup prepared pesto (store bough or homemade)
- 1 bulb of garlic
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, cooked
- 1/3 cup chopped Italian Salami
- 1/2 Can of tidbit Pineapple
- Mozzarella cheese
- Parmesan cheese
- To roast the garlic: Peel away the outer layers of the garlic bulb skin, leaving the skins of the individual cloves intact. Using a knife, cut off 1/4 to a 1/2 inch of the top of cloves, exposing the individual cloves of garlic. Place the garlic heads in a baking pan; muffin pans work well for this purpose. Drizzle a couple teaspoons of olive oil over each head, using your fingers to make sure the garlic head is well coated. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 400°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves feel soft when pressed. Remove garlic gloves and smash with a fork.
- Spread roasted garlic over pizza dough. Do this to taste. I used almost the whole (small) bulb, but I LOVE roasted garlic.
- Spread the pesto on the pizza.
- Add the sliced, cooked chicken, salami and pinapple
- Sprinkle with mozzarella.
- Top with fresh grated parmesan.
- Bake for 15-20 min at 350 C or until cooked through
Vwala. The most delicious pizza. Ever.
