Rosemary Chicken Pizza Recipe

Fast & Easy Dinner: Rosemary Chicken Pizza

By now, you may know that I love pizza. Not only do I serve it as an appetizer and use leftovers as toppings, but I make it when I'm in need of a quick pick-me-up. After a long day, there's nothing quite as comforting as a crisp crust oozing with melted cheese.

Assembling a pizza also allows me to get creative in the kitchen without having to waste a ton of time prepping ingredients. This simple recipe combines a crunchy dough with rotisserie chicken, goat cheese, rosemary, and Parmesan cheese.

It's a filling meal on its own, but for additional balance I'll enjoy it with mixed greens. To look at the recipe, read more.

Ingredients

Pizza dough
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing and drizzling
Freshly grated parmesan cheese, for sprinkling
Coarse salt
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
5 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
½ tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary (about 1 sprig)

Directions

Invert a large baking sheet and place it on a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat the oven to 500°.
Invert a second baking sheet on a work surface and cover it with a sheet of parchment paper. Stretch the pizza dough to fit the parchment paper.
Brush the dough generously with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with parmesan and salt. Scatter the chicken, goat cheese and rosemary on top.
Slide the pizza and the parchment from the cool baking sheet to the hot baking sheet in the oven. Bake until the crust is golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Drizzle with more olive oil and top with more parmesan. Cut into pieces.

Serves 8.
