Chicken Pesto Pizza
My family loves chicken and loves pesto, so when I was pressed to make a quick dinner for my family, I created this quick, easy and delicious recipe.
Ingredients:
– one packed thin crust pizza shell
– pulled rotisserie chicken, or sliced chicken breast
– fresh pesto or Maison Le Grand packaged pesto
– sliced apple or pear
– grated old cheddar cheese
Directions:
Spread pesto evenly on pizza shell. Top pesto with chicken, then cheese and finally sliced apple. Bake in oven on middle rack at 350 for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and shell is browned. Slice and serve. *Pizza could be grilled as well if you have a pizza grilling pan
One of the easiest meals we’ve made as a family and one of the most delicious. Fresh, nutritious, quick and easy. We served this pizza with a side salad to round out the meal.
What is your family’s favourite quick meal?
This looks so good! Great idea to add the pear or apple!

Thank you. I had a pizza with apples on it in Italy years ago. Since then I’ve been trying to add apples to a variety of pizzas.
What a gorgeous recipe! I love your combination of pesto, chicken and pear–mmm!

I never would have thought to add fruit to a pizza. The chicken and pesto sound delicious

The pizza looks delicious!! We love pizza and I make it once or twice a month but surprisingly I have never made a pizza with chicken. After reading this delicious looking and sounding recipe I will definitely be trying it very soon. I have pinned it too :)

Thank you! I’m sure you’d love it :)
Is it sad that I’ve never had pesto before? And apples on a pizza? That sounds so fun for the kids and amazingly delicious. Now I’m hungry.
