PEPPERONI CHICKEN PIZZA STYLE



Pepperoni Chicken Pizza Style image

My mom had an incinerate setting on her oven. That is how she cooked meat. I thought that all meat was some form of carbon based life form, because that is what it tasted like. I have made it my mission to find ways to serve moist and flavorful meat. This is an inspiration born of too much time on my hands and needing to feed picky eaters. If I attach the word Pizza to any recipe it is guaranteed at least a try! The chicken is breaded, topped with spaghetti sauce, vegetables, pepperoni and cheese. It is a tasty combination.
