Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough room temperature for easier stretching
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 clove garlic, minced
  • 0.75 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated freshly grated melts best
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cup cooked chicken breast, diced rotisserie or leftover works great
  • 2 cup low-moisture mozzarella, shredded
  • 1 cup baby spinach, chopped optional
  • 0.25 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional for heat
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
  • 1 tbsp cornmeal for dusting the peel or pan

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Place a pizza stone or an inverted sheet pan in the oven and preheat to 475°F (246°C) for at least 20 minutes. Lightly dust a peel or second sheet pan with cornmeal.
  • Make the Alfredo sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 0.5 minute. Stir in heavy cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in Parmesan until smooth, then season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat to thicken slightly.
  • Stretch the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Transfer to the cornmeal-dusted peel or pan. Brush the surface with olive oil and dock the center with a fork to prevent bubbles.
  • Spread a thin, even layer of Alfredo sauce over the dough, leaving a small border. Top with half the mozzarella, then scatter the diced chicken and spinach. Finish with the remaining mozzarella and a pinch of red pepper flakes if using.
  • Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling with browned spots, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating once for even color.
  • Rest 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, slice into 8 pieces, and serve hot.

Notes

Short on time? Swap the homemade sauce for 1.0 cup of good-quality jarred Alfredo. For extra flavor, add caramelized onions or cooked bacon. Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 3 days and reheat at 375°F until warm.
