Yield 8 servings

Ingredients

3 tablespoons LAND O LAKES® Butter
2 large sweet onions (such as Maui or Walla Walla), very thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 can (13.8 oz.) Pillsbury® refrigerated classic pizza crust
1 unpeeled large Red Delicious apple, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon Domino® or C&H® Granulated Sugar
3 cups cubed cooked chicken breast

2 medium green onions, sliced (2 tablespoons)
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper Jack cheese (6 oz.)
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (6 oz.)

Steps:

In 12-inch skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add sweet onions and thyme; cook about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden. Stir in salt and pepper. Remove onions from skillet; set aside. Heat oven to 425 degrees F. High Altitude (3500-6500 ft): No change. Spray large cookie sheet with CRISCO Original No-Stick Cooking Spray. Unroll pizza crust dough on cookie sheet; press dough into 14x10-inch rectangle. Bake 7 to 11 minutes or until light golden brown. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, in same skillet, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add apple and sugar; cook 4 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sugar is melted and apple is slightly soft. Spread onion mixture over partially baked crust. Top evenly with chicken, apple mixture, bacon, green onions and cheeses. Bake 10 to 20 minutes longer or until cheeses are melted and crust is golden brown.

Tips:

Choose the right chicken: Bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs work best for this recipe. Bone-in chicken will give the dish more flavor, and the skin will help keep the chicken moist during cooking.
Use a good quality apple cider: The apple cider is key to the flavor of this dish, so be sure to use a good quality cider that is flavorful and not too sweet.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices: The recipe calls for a basic combination of spices, but you can feel free to add other spices that you like, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
