When I made this my DH said that my midwestern side was showing through. I used a rotisserie chicken, deboned and shredded on the bottom, then I had an eggplant that I peeled and sliced very thin on top of that and topped it with the sauce. Then I topped it just like a pizza. I don't like green peppers, so I substituted some sliced black olives and pepperoni along with everything else. Since the chicken was already cooked, it only took 20 minutes to warm everything up and melt the cheese. It was wonderful! Thanks.

What a lovely, quick and easy weeknight meal. It took me no time at all to put it together, in fact I also doubled the recipe. I used uncooked chicken so I cut it into smaller pieces and quickly browned it in a pan to give it a bit of colour before adding to the dish. For the pizza sauce I used sugarpea's recipe #72283 as it is one of my favourites. For the olives I used anchovey stuffed olives which, for us, gave this a great flavour. Special bonus was that my 4 year and 18 month old both loved it. Thanks for posting michEgan, I will use this recipe often :)
