Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

Sauce

  • ½ cup alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Toppings

  • 6 slices bacon, cooked crispy and chopped
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, chopped or shredded
  • 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

Extras

  • Olive oil for brushing (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C), ensuring it is hot enough to bake the pizza crust to a golden crisp.
  2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and shape. If you like, lightly brush the dough edges with olive oil for a golden crust.
  3. Spread Alfredo Sauce: Evenly spread the ½ cup of alfredo sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
  4. Add Toppings: Scatter the chopped crispy bacon, cooked chicken, and shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the alfredo sauce.
  5. Bake the Pizza: Place the prepared pizza on a baking sheet or pizza stone and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle fresh chopped parsley on top. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, use a pizza stone preheated in the oven.
  • Substitute chicken with turkey or leave it out for a vegetarian option (omit bacon).
  • For homemade alfredo sauce, mix butter, heavy cream, garlic, and parmesan cheese until smooth.
  • Use low-moisture mozzarella for best melting results.
  • Olive oil brushing on the crust enhances browning and flavor but is optional.
