Caprese and Pesto Grilled Chicken Pizza


  • Author: Kitschen Cat
  • Total Time: 30 mins
  • Yield: 4-6 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup pesto
  • 3 roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 large chicken breast, seasoned with salt and pepper, grilled, and chopped
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (affiliate)

Instructions

  1. On a piece of parchment paper or a large cutting board sprinkled with flour, roll pizza dough into a rectangle until 1/2 inch thick.
  2. Transfer dough to a preheated grill (as hot as it will go, or 450-500 degrees) and grill for 2 minutes on each side.
  3. Remove the dough from the grill and spread pesto all across the pizza, leaving an inch of exposed crust around the edges.
  4. Layer with sliced tomatoes, then sprinkle with chopped chicken, mozzarella cheese, salt, and pepper.
  5. Place back on the grill and cook with the lid down for 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the crust are crispy.
  6. Remove from grill, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
  7. Slice and enjoy!
