Chicken Salsa Pizza

I find this pizza great for leftover chicken, but you can use raw chicken breasts and cook them up. Also, because of the taste of salsa, you don't need as much cheese or sauce, which makes it healthier. I prefer to use homemade half-whole wheat pizza dough, but any dough will work. Show more

Directions

  1. Prepare the pizza dough.
  2. If using raw chicken breast, fry strips in oil until cooked through, but not totally done. Halfway through cooking add vegetables and sautee until soft. If using leftover chicken, you can just sautee the vegetables, or leave them raw and put all the ingredients in a bowl.
  3. Add enough salsa to coat the chicken and vegetables.
  4. Mix in as much cheese as desired.
  5. Top pizza with chicken and vegetable mixture. Top with more cheese if desired.
  6. Bake on preheated pizza stone at 475 for 10 minutes, or according to directions for pizza dough.
