CHICKEN & SPINACH ALFREDO PIZZA



Chicken & Spinach Alfredo Pizza image

This is my favorite homemade pizza; these are the basic toppings though I vary sometimes depending on what's on hand. I make the dough in my bread machine and add a little garlic powder and basil or italian seasonings to the dough ingredients for extra flavor. Some measurements are approximate.

Yield 1 pizza

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pizza dough
1 cup prepared alfredo sauce
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, cooked and drained
2 -3 boneless chicken breasts, cooked or grilled and diced
1/2 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup sliced black olives, well drained
2 -3 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Roll dough out thin; put on lightly greased cookie sheet and prick holes all over to minimize bubbling.
  • Prebake the pizza dough at 425°F for 5-7 minutes, remove from oven.
  • Spread alfredo sauce to within 1" of edges.
  • Top with chicken, spinach, onion, feta and olives, then mozzarella and parmesan last.
  • If you like you can brush some olive oil around the edges of the crust.
  • Return to oven and bake at 425°F for 10-12 minutes or until done and bottom is browned.
  • Remove from oven and let stand a few minutes before slicing.
  • Delicious and even better warmed up the next day; I have also added mushrooms when I had them on hand.

NIKKI'S CHICKEN AND SPINACH ALFREDO PIZZA



Nikki's Chicken and Spinach Alfredo Pizza image

I was really craving some pizza and had always wanted to try my hand at alfredo pizza. So after some playing around came up with this. My mother-n-law said it was the best pizza she's ever had and that's really saying something to get a complement from her like that! My husband backed her up and he's extremely picky! lol Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think. NOTE: It may look like a lot of stuff but if you do it stages, it really isn't, such as using left over chicken and making the sauce ahead of time and just setting it to the side til you need it.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup warm water
1 (1/4 ounce) package yeast
2 3/4 cups flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt (I use kosher salt)
10 tablespoons butter, divided
2 -3 tablespoons garlic, peeled and finely minced (more or less to your taste)
2 tablespoons flour (I usually just use two regular silverware spoonfulls)
1/2 cup dry white wine (Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris or Semillon are all fine. Use whatever drinkin) (optional)

1 cup parmesan cheese, grated (or more, to your taste)
2 tablespoons frozen spinach, thawed and drained of liquid (amount estimated)

1 roma tomato, sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Dough: In a bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine flour, oil, salt and sugar.
  • Add in yeast water and mix together, making a ball.
  • Knead by hand 5-10 minutes, until when you press your thumb down the indention stays. *You could also use your hand/stand mixer if it has a kneading attachment for about 2-3 minutes or you could use your bread machine.*.
  • Rub small amount of olive oil around dough, to keep it from sticking, and place in a large bowl, covering with plastic wrap.
  • Place in a warm area to rise at least 30 minutes.

  • Roll out dough to fit either your pizza stone or out on a baking sheet, curling edges, if you like, to make the crust.
  • With a spoon, add a very thin layer of sauce on the dough and put in the oven to bake for 15 minutes or until dough is almost fully cooked.
  • Remove from oven, place chicken pieces and tomatoes and cover with more sauce. (There will be extra sauce left).

Tips:

  • Use a store-bought pizza crust or make your own. If using a store-bought crust, preheat the oven according to the package instructions before assembling the pizza.
  • For the Alfredo sauce, use a good quality Parmesan cheese. Freshly grated Parmesan is best, but you can also use pre-shredded Parmesan.
  • To cook the chicken, you can either grill it, pan-fry it, or bake it. If grilling, cook the chicken over medium heat for 6-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. If pan-frying, heat a little olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. If baking, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • To wilt the spinach, heat a little olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the spinach. Cook until the spinach is wilted and bright green, about 2-3 minutes.
  • When assembling the pizza, start with the Alfredo sauce, then add the chicken, spinach, and mozzarella cheese. You can also add other toppings of your choice, such as mushrooms, onions, or bell peppers.
  • Bake the pizza in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

This chicken spinach Alfredo pizza is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The pizza is creamy, cheesy, and flavorful, and it is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
