Chicken Parmesan Pizza
- 1 (10-ounce) Boboli whole-wheat pizza crust
- 3/4 cup low-fat pizza or marinara sauce (lower-sodium, if possible)
- 8 ounces Basic Grilled Chicken (see page 219) or lean, store-bought grilled chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 ounces (about 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons) finely shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese (no more than 3 g of fat per ounce; I used Lucerne, found at Safeway chains)
- 1 tablespoon grated reduced-fat Parmesan cheese (look for it in a plastic canister or jar, not in the refrigerated section)
- 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh basil slivers, optional
- 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste, optional
- Preheat the oven to 450F.
- Place the crust on a baking sheet large enough for it to lie flat.
- Spread the sauce evenly over the crust to cover all but the outer 1/2 inch.
- Top it evenly with the chicken and then the mozzarella, Parmesan, basil, and red pepper flakes, if using.
- Bake the pizza until the cheese melts and the dough is lightly crisped, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Transfer it to a platter or cutting board.
- Let stand 5 minutes, and then slice into 8 equal slices and serve immediately.
