Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound pizza dough
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 8 cloves roasted garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup skim milk
  • 0.25 cup half and half
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1.5 cups cooked and shredded boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 0.25 cup red onion, diced
  • 0.75 cup Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Prepare a baking sheet by using a silicone baking mat or greasing it and sprinkling it with cornmeal to prevent sticking.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Sauté the minced roasted garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant. This will enhance the garlic flavor in your sauce.
  • Add the flour to the pan and mix until well blended. Cook for an additional minute to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Slowly whisk in the skim milk and half and half until smooth. Add the black pepper for seasoning.
  • Continue to cook the mixture for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently until it thickens. Once thickened, remove it from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and well combined.
  • Spread the pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a 12-inch circle. This is a great opportunity to get your hands involved and have fun with the dough!
  • Evenly spread the white garlic sauce over the dough. Be sure to cover it well for maximum flavor.
  • Top the pizza with the shredded chicken, diced red onions, and sprinkle the Mozzarella cheese generously over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped fresh thyme, dried oregano, and fresh parsley for a burst of flavor. Cut into slices and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add some sliced cherry tomatoes or bell peppers as additional toppings.
