Blue Ribbon Recipe by

My family is a traditional pizza kind of family, but one of my brothers mentioned trying this combination and I rose to the challenge. I am lazy when it comes to pizza and have used frozen bread dough for years. Having rotisserie chicken available has made this recipe a breeze! I thought adding spinach and mushrooms would make this pizza more hearty and sneak in a few more veggies. I used a variety of cheeses, but to save money you could use one kind. Also, the Alfredo sauce is more of a white sauce and less of a commercial Alfredo. My family really enjoyed it and the seasoning is mild.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This chicken Alfredo pizza is a quick and easy gourmet pizza to make at home. Frozen bread dough and rotisserie chicken lets this pizza be whipped up rather quickly. Brushing the crust with garlic butter adds robust flavor. We loved the thick and creamy homemade Alfredo sauce. Topping with chicken, spinach, mushrooms, and more cheese makes this pizza a hearty meal.

How To Make chicken alfredo pizza

Test Kitchen Tips
We used a 1 lb loaf of bread dough for the crust.
  • Melted butter, garlic, rosemary, and salt in a small bowl.
    1
    Garlic Butter: Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Blend in garlic, rosemary, and salt. Set aside.
  • Pricking rolled out dough with a fork.
    2
    Pizza Dough: Preheat oven to 400 F. After the dough has completely thawed and risen until doubled. Turn out on a greased pizza pan, spreading to the edge. Poke dough repeatedly with a fork to get a minimal rise.
  • Spreading garlic butter over the dough.
    3
    Spread garlic butter over the crust with a pastry brush. Cook dough in a preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove and pierce any air bubbles that rose while baking, flattening the surface.
  • Melting butter in a skillet with salt and pepper.
    4
    Alfredo Sauce: Melt butter, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan.
  • Adding flour to create a roux.
    5
    Add flour, creating a roux.
  • Adding milk.
    6
    Whisk in milk eliminating all of the lumps.
  • Adding cheese.
    7
    Add Romano cheese. Simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat.
  • Mixing together a small amount of sauce with chicken.
    8
    In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of Alfredo sauce and the chopped chicken. This helps the meat from drying out while cooking.
  • Alfredo sauce covering the dough.
    9
    Assemble: Cover the dough with Alfredo sauce.
  • Mozzarella cheese sprinkled on the sauce.
    10
    Then add mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
  • Topping with spinach, mushrooms, and chicken.
    11
    Top with torn spinach, sliced mushrooms, and cooked chicken.
  • More cheese sprinkled on top.
    12
    The last layer is an Italian pizza blend cheese (or additional mozzarella).
  • Baked pizza cooling.
    13
    Bake: Put in the oven at 400 F for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted. Let set for 3-5 minutes before cutting.
