Equipment

  • pizza stone
  • saute pan
  • pizza peel

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped roma tomatoes
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 medium garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
  • 1 small chicken breast, cut in half lengthwise (You want the chicken to be thin)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder, divided
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 ball pizza dough (enough for 1 12-inch pizza)
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated or shredded parmesan cheese, divided
  • 2 tbsp balsamic glaze

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to as hot as it will go or 500 degrees. Place a pizza stone in the oven.
  • Add tomatoes, 2 teaspoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 of the garlic, and parsley to a small bowl. Toss to combine. Let the mixture sit at room temperature while you make the pizza and cook the chicken.
  • Sprinkle chicken evenly with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat a medium or large non-stick skillet to a medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Cook chicken until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Cool slightly, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Cover a pizza peel generously with flour. Use hands to stretch the dough or roll with a rolling pin into a 12-inch circle. Place on the pizza peel and make sure it can slide around. Brush with remaining tablespoon of olive oil and 1/4 tsp salt. Sprinkle with pepper.
  • Cover with mozzarella and 1/2 of parmesan cheese. Sprinkle evenly with chicken. Slide the pizza on to the pizza stone and cook until golden brown and bubbly, about 8-10 minutes. (Be sure to watch it, they cook FAST in an oven this hot.)
  • Once the pizza comes out, cover in tomatoes, sprinkle with remaining parmesan, and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
