Roasted Garlic, Chicken & Herb White Pizza

Long time no see!


I posted this picture on Instagram last night after finally getting around to trying this recipe I saw on Pinterest and had a few requests to share it.

Roasted Garlic, Chicken & Herb White Pizza from Dinners and Desserts


Ingredients:

• 1 pound pizza dough
• 1 Tbls butter
• 8 cloves roasted garlic, minced
• 2 Tbls all-purpose flour
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ cup skim milk
• ¼ cup half and half
• ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
• 1½ cup boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded
• ¼ cup red onion, diced
• ¾ cup Mozzarella cheese
• 1 tsp fresh thyme, chopped
• ½ tsp dried oregano
• 1 Tbls fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with a siplat liner, or grease and sprinkle with cornmeal.
2. Melt butter in a small saucepan. Saute roasted garlic for 1 minute.
3. Add flour, and mix until well blended. Cook for 1 minute.
4. Slowly whisk in the milk and half and half. Mix in the pepper. -If you want to go a little healthier, I used skim milk and it still came out amazing
5. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until it starts to thicken. Remove from heat, and stir in Parmesan cheese.
6. Spread dough into roughly a 12 inch circle on prepared baking sheet. Spread white cause over the dough. Top with chicken, red onions and cheese.
7. Bake for 17 minutes, or until the crust is golden, and the cheese is melted. -Don't forget that the thinner the crust, the quicker it cooks. We only put ours in the oven for about 11 minutes.
8. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with herbs. Cut and serve immediately.

I chose not to use the red onions

This pizza seriously tasted just like my favorite restaurant pizza, California Kitchen and it was relatively easy to make. SOOOOOO good!!
