A delicious twist on classic flavors, Chicken Parm Pizza combines shredded chicken, marinara sauce, and a blend of cheeses on a crispy pizza crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 pre-made pizza crust (12-inch)
- Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)
- Olive oil, for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until the chicken is well coated with the sauce and seasonings.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken mixture, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Drizzle a little olive oil over the top for added flavor and moisture.

- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, then slice and serve.
Notes
- For a spicy kick, add crushed red pepper flakes to the chicken mixture.
- For a healthier option, use a whole wheat pizza crust and add vegetables like bell peppers or spinach to the chicken topping.
