Spinch Chicken Alfredo Pizza

I made this pizza using my oven roasted vegetable pizza, mozzarella cheese, fresh chopped spinach and Bertolli Alfredo sauce. (For this recipe I prepared my own dough as well.)

For Pizza Dough- Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
• 1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
• 2 cups wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons white sugar
• White cornmeal for texture (Optional)

Directions

1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups wheat flour, cornmeal, olive oil, salt, white sugar and the yeast mixture; stir well to combine. Beat well until a stiff dough has formed. Cover and rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F
3. Turn dough out onto a well floured surface. Form dough into a round and roll out into a pizza crust shape. I put a a little but of cornmeal on the pizza baking sheet so that it would get onto the bottom of the pizza crust and five it more texture. For this recipe, I stuffed the crust. If you wish to do so, just line around the edges of the pizza crust with mozzarella cheese and try to keep it even and as round as possible. Once that is done, fold the crust over the cheese and pinch shut. Seal the crust over with some extra olive oil-it is healthier than butter and adds great flavor to the pizza. Also, make sure that when you are putting the toppings on the pizza that the crust is already on the baking sheet because it is very frail and you do not want it to break when your attempting to move it from the counter space to the baking sheet.

For the Pizza Sauce- Recipe

Ingredients

• I jar of Bertolli Alfredo sauce
• 1 cup on chopped spinach
• 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup of 2% milk

Directions

On a small cutting board, chop up the spinach. Next, in a medium size sauce pan with the heat on medium, add the entire jar of Alfredo sauce and spinach. Stir a little bit and add the cheese. Gradually add the milk which adds texture and add how ever much you would like based on what consistency you would like to have. If you would like the sauce to be thicker, you may add more cheese. Stir until all ingredients are combined and form a smooth, creamy texture. Let that simmer.

Topping for the Pizza- Recipe (How to assemble)

• Mozzarella cheese
• Oven roasted chicken (See other recipe)
• fresh chopped spinach

Directions

Shred your cooked chicken by hand or with pulling forks. Once your dough, sauce and chicken is ready. Add the sauce to your pizza crust slowly and spread it around, add how ever much you would like. Add some of the shredded chicken on top of the sauce and next some chopped spinach. Cover with mozzarella cheese. Place how ever more chicken you would like on the top along with some spinach. Sprinkle some salt around the crust for flavor and place the pizza into the oven. Bake it at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese has turned a slight golden brown in color. We cooked ours on stoneware, which turned out amazing but feel free to use any type of bake ware that you have on hand. Enjoy!
