Chicken & Pesto Pizza
- 6 leaves Fresh Basil
- 1 Tablespoon Pine Nuts
- 3 Tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 cups Olive Oil
- 1- 1/2 ounce, weight Chicken Breast
- 1 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning
- 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Onion Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano
- Olive Oil, For Cooking The Chicken
- 1 whole Regular Crust Pizza
- 4 Tablespoons Gorgonzola
- 1 cup Arugula
- Salt And Pepper
- 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
- Pesto sauce: Grab a grinder or food processor.
- Grind basil, pine nuts, and parmesan cheese.
- Add olive oil until its spreadable.
- (Typical pesto calls for garlic but I forgot it in the recipe.
- You can add it if you like but the garlic powder on the chicken made up for it.)
- Set aside.
- Chicken breast: Rise the chicken breast, place in a plate and season.
- I just sprinkled about 1/2 a tablespoon of each spice on both sides of the chicken breasts.
- Heat a skillet and coat with olive oil.
- Cook chicken about 3-4 minutes each side.
- Pizza assembly: Grab the pizza crust, set on a cookie sheet and spread some pesto.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Now, thinly slice the chicken breast.
- Add to the pizza, bake for another 15 minutes.
- Add gorgonzola and bake for 5 minutes.
- Got some extra grated parmesan?
- Put it on it, too.
- Serve with a side of arugula tossed with sea salt, ground pepper, and balsamic vinegar when ready to eat.
