Description

Creamy homemade alfredo sauce topped with grilled chicken and mozzarella makes a perfect homemade Chicken Alfredo Pizza.

Ingredients

Scale

1 homemade pizza crust
1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
1 clove garlic, minced
2 ounces cream cheese, softened, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, plus a little extra for topping
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup cooked chicken, chopped
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Make the sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add cream cheese and mix until smooth. Gradually add the milk, stirring until smooth. Stir in parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Prepare Pizza crust: Roll/stretch the pizza dough into a large circle. Pre-bake crust for 4-5 minutes at 425 degrees F. Don’t pre-bake if it’s a thin crust pizza.
Assemble: Spoon alfredo sauce over the crust. Add a thin layer of mozzarella, then chopped chicken, more mozzarella, and then a sprinkle of extra parmesan cheese.
Bake: Bake at 425 degrees F for 8-12 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

To make ahead: Make the pizza dough several hours ahead of time and allow to rise in the refrigerator, or prep the alfredo sauce ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for 1-2 days. For freezing: Freeze baked or unbaked pizza dough, allow to thaw on the counter, then top with sauce and toppings.
