Feta, Spinach and Chicken Sausage Pizza

Submitted by Ewalla

"I found spinach, garlic, and feta chicken sausage at the store and thought it would be great on a pizza. I also had canned san marzano tomatoes so I decided to make my own marinara. You can substitute pre-made marinara to make it even easy. I also used whole wheat crust to make it healthier."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 13
• Yields: 1 pizza

ingredients

• 6 links chicken sausage
• 3 -4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1⁄2 cup chicken stock
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 (28 ounce) can san marzano tomatoes
• oregano
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• salt and pepper
• 1 teaspoon tomato paste (optional)
• 1 (8 ounce) package frozen spinach, defrosted
• 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 cup crumbled feta
• 4 slices provolone cheese
• 1 store-bought whole wheat pizza crust

directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Poke a few holes in the sausage and place in a medium sauce pan over medium high heat and come about half way up the sausage with the EVOO, balsamic, and chicken stock. Occasionally turn the sausages and cook until the liquid has reduced into a glaze. Slice the sausage and return the to pan to coat in the glaze.
3. Meanwhile, sautee garlic in a little EVOO on medium low heat for about 1 minute. Make sure it doesn't turn brown. Add tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper to taste. You may need to add about a 1 tsp of tomato paste if the sauce is too thin. Let the sauce simmer until ready to use.
4. Drizzle a little EVOO on the crust then spread the mariana. Top with chicken sausage, spinach, feta, and provolone. Bake about 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted.
