Matt's Marinated Chicken Spinach Pizza - Quick, Pourable Crust image

This is quite an easy crust to make. No waiting for the dough to rise; simply pour and spread on parchment paper and top with the beautiful and delicious toppings described here. Add salt for taste as desired because this is an initially low-sodium pizza. The healthiest, most closely authentic Italian crispy-thin-crust pizza you'll find. Say that fast! I have a very similar chicken spinach Alfredo pizza that's even better tasting.

Time 8h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 ounces cooked chicken breast, cut into 1/4-inch strips
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 ⅓ cups rolled oats
1 cup skim milk
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 egg whites
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
½ teaspoon minced garlic
⅛ teaspoon anise seed
8 sprays olive oil cooking spray, or to taste
½ pound roma (plum) tomatoes, thinly sliced
¾ cup frozen spinach leaves, broken into small pieces
1 ounce portobello mushroom, diced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ ounce fresh basil leaves
1 ounce shredded Cheddar cheese (such as Cabot®), or more to taste

Steps:

  • Season chicken on all sides with smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place a baking stone on the lowest rack in the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Process oats in a blender until powdered. Add milk, extra-virgin olive oil, egg whites, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic, and anise seed; blend until dough is just combined and pourable. Pour dough onto prepared baking sheet and use a spoon to spread dough into desired shape.
  • Spray dough with olive oil cooking spray; top with chicken strips, tomato slices, spinach, mushroom, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
  • Place baking sheet on the baking stone in the preheated oven and bake until chicken strips are cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Top pizza with basil and cheese, close the oven door, and turn off the oven. Let pizza sit in the oven until cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer pizza on the parchment paper directly to the baking stone, cut pizza into 8 slices, and space the slices about 1-inch apart on the parchment paper. Close the oven door and let pizza sit in the oven until crust crisps and moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes more.

PIZZA CRUST STUFFED SPINACH AND SAUSAGE ROLL



Pizza Crust Stuffed Spinach and Sausage Roll image

Refrigerated pizza crusts makes this recipe easier, but you can also make this using your own pizza crust in place of the refrigerated. To save some time you can prepare the sausage/spinach filling up to a day in advance and refrigerate. When I made these I didn't shape the stuffed rolls into rings, I just left them rolled up straight and sealed the ends, that worked fine, but you can shape them into rings if desired.

Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, use a pizza stone or baking sheet preheated to a high temperature.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the spinach by hand.
  • Be sure to wring out the spinach thoroughly to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • If the dough is too wet, add more flour until it is a smooth, workable dough.
  • If the dough is too dry, add more water until it is a smooth, workable dough.
  • Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a lightly floured surface to prevent sticking.
  • If the dough is too thin, it will be difficult to transfer to the pizza stone or baking sheet without tearing.
  • To prevent the crust from getting soggy, brush it with olive oil before adding the toppings.
  • Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
