Description
A delicious pizza recipe featuring a creamy garlic Alfredo sauce topped with chicken, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 450 g pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 100 g grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
- 150 g cooked chicken breast, diced or shredded
- 170 g shredded mozzarella cheese
- 25 g grated Parmesan cheese
- 30 g sliced red onion (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 245°C. If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
- Melt unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add grated Parmesan, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Stir until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll the pizza dough into a 30 cm circle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet or floured pizza peel if using a stone.
- Spread 120–180 ml of Alfredo sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 2.5 cm border.
- Top with cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, additional Parmesan, and red onion if using.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust turns golden and the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, then slice and serve hot.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic based on your preference.
- For a vegetarian option, omit the chicken and consider adding vegetables like spinach or mushrooms.
