Categories     Pizza

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 19

250 grams all-purpose flour (2 cups)
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp dry active yeast
3/4 cup warm water
2 chicken breasts, shredded
Emeril's Essence seasoning
1 tbsp olive oil
6 slices bacon, chopped
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 shallot, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/4 tsp Italian seasoning
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, divided
sprinkle of cornmeal

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, salt and yeast. Add the water and mix with a wooden spoon or your hands. It should be sticky, but not lumpy.
  • Cover with saran wrap and a towel in a warm place, allowing it to rise for 24 hours. Transfer to a floured surface and shape into ball. Use when ready.
  • Place pizza stone in oven 8" from the broiler element and preheat to 500°F. You want stone to be in oven for at least 30 minutes at 500°F.
  • If using chicken breasts, heat medium skillet with 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Season with Emeril's Essence and cook in skillet for 4 minutes on each side until completely cooked through and shred. If using rotisserie chicken, just shred, add the seasoning and set aside.
  • In a medium skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until fat is rendered and crisp. Place on paper towel-lined plate and reserve 1 tbsp bacon fat.
  • In same skillet over medium heat, add butter. Add shallot and cook for about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds. Add flour and cook for about 1 minute, or until bubbly.
  • Slowly whisk in cream and chicken stock and cook for about 1 minute or until thickened. Add Italian seasoning and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and stir to combine. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Sprinkle pizza peel with cornmeal or flour. Use your hands to gently tug, pull and push the dough to the shape you want and place on pizza peel.
  • Spread a light layer of the garlic cream sauce over the dough, leaving about 1 inch around the edges untouched. Spread the cooked chicken and bacon throughout the pizza. Add the mozzarella, cheddar and remaining Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Once stone is preheated, turn broiler to high. Transfer pizza to pizza stone and bake for 4-5 minutes or until top is bubbly and bottom is golden brown.

ROASTED GARLIC CHICKEN & BACON PIZZA RECIPE BY TASTY



Roasted Garlic Chicken & Bacon Pizza Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: garlic, olive oil, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, boneless, skinless chicken breast, boneless, skinless chicken thigh, paprika, italian seasoning, hickory smoked thick cut bacon, pizza dough, pizza sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, fresh parsley

Provided by Napoleon

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 heads garlic, tops, removed
¼ cup olive oil, divided, plus 3 1/2 tablespoons
2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 boneless, skinless chicken thigh
½ teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
3 strips hickory smoked thick cut bacon
1 lb pizza dough
⅓ cup pizza sauce
1 ¼ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
⅓ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to 400°F (200°C).
  • Place the garlic heads on a small sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle 1½ tablespoons of olive oil over the garlic and season with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper, then wrap tightly. Place the garlic on one side of the grill, close the lid, and roast for 35-40 minutes, until the cloves are tender and golden brown. Remove from the grill and let cool for 10 minutes, then unwrap the foil and squeeze the garlic cloves out of the skins.
  • Meanwhile, season the chicken breast and thigh with the remaining 1½ teaspoons of salt, remaining 1½ teaspoons black pepper, the paprika, Italian seasoning, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the seasoned chicken to the rotisserie basket and turn on the motor so that the chicken rotates and cooks evenly. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken and let rest for about 5 minutes, then roughly chop.
  • Heat a small cast-iron skillet on the sizzle zone over medium-high heat. Add the bacon to the pan and cook, flipping occasionally, for 6-8 minutes, until very crispy and cooked through. Remove the bacon from the pan and roughly chop.
  • Roll out the pizza dough to your desired shape, about ½ inch thick. Brush the remaining ¼ cup of olive oil over both sides of the dough, then place directly on the grill grates (or use a pizza stone if preferred). Close the lid and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly browned.
  • Flip the dough over and top with the pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped chicken, chopped bacon, and roasted garlic cloves. Close the lid and cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom of the dough is cooked through and the cheese has melted.
  • Remove the pizza from the grill and sprinkle with the parsley. Slice and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy!

CHICKEN GARLIC PIZZA



Chicken Garlic Pizza image

I experimented in the kitchen to create a pizza my husband loves. It doesn't use your traditional tomato based sauce. Instead, it uses a jar of alfredo sauce. We like to use garlic alfredo sauce. The garlic really makes the pizza. It may seem like a lot, but trust me, it's good. Buying already minced fresh garlic saves time and hastle. I prefer to use the pizza pans with holes in the bottom or else the crust can get a little soggy. The crust recipe uses a breadmaker but any pizza crust recipe will work. Using my breadmaker for the crust saves a lot of time- I used to make this weekly. We love it!
