Ingredients

Units Scale

Base

  • 1 Loaf French Bread

Toppings

  • 2 cups Cooked &; Sliced Chicken Breasts
  • 1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
  • 1/2 cup Purple Onion, sliced

Sauce & Cheese

  • 1 Jar Alfredo Pasta Sauce (approximately 15 oz)
  • 1 16 oz. Package Mozzarella Cheese or Italian Blend Cheese

Seasoning

  • Fresh Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Slice French Bread: Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise to create a flat surface for your pizza toppings.
  2. Spread Alfredo Sauce: Evenly spread the Alfredo sauce over the cut sides of the French bread, ensuring a generous layer that will infuse flavor into each bite.
  3. Add Toppings: Layer the fresh spinach, sliced purple onion, and cooked chicken breasts evenly over the Alfredo sauce to distribute flavor and texture throughout the pizza.
  4. Top with Cheese: Generously sprinkle the mozzarella cheese or Italian blend cheese on top of the layered ingredients to create a gooey, melty topping once baked.
  5. Season: Optionally, sprinkle fresh ground black pepper over the assembled pizza to add a touch of freshly cracked spice.
  6. Bake: Place the prepared French bread pizza on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Broil for Crispiness: For a golden, crispy cheese topping, switch the oven to broil and broil the pizza for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.

Notes

  • Use pre-cooked chicken to save time; rotisserie chicken works great.
  • Feel free to substitute fresh baby spinach with kale or arugula.
  • Broiling time is short, so keep a close eye on the pizza to prevent burning.
  • This pizza is best enjoyed fresh from the oven for optimal texture and flavor.
  • You can add red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat.
