Pesto Pizza with Pine Nuts and Feta

Pesto Pizza with Pine Nuts and Feta

Yield: 1 large or 2 medium pizzas

Prep Time: 25

Cook Time: 10

Total Time: 35

Ingredients

1 batch pizza dough
1 ½ cups shredded chicken (see note)
Pesto
4 oz feta cheese
½ red onion, cut in slivers
1-2 large tomatoes sliced, I used grape tomatoes cut in half
Shredded mozzarella, to your liking
Toasted pine nuts, to your liking

Instructions

Preheat pizza stone (I preheat my oven and pizza stone at 475 degrees for at least 45 minutes before baking the pizza so the stone is nice and hot). Roll out prepared pizza dough and place on pizza peel (or on pizza pan if you aren’t baking it on a pizza stone).
Top pizza dough with the pesto, spreading liberally to outer edges of dough. Layer on additional toppings to your liking (I like to reserve some of the toppings and put them on top of the final layer of cheese) and bake for 8-10 minutes until nicely browned.

Notes

Chicken: I used this lemon garlic chicken.
