This Chicken Parmesan Pizza was invented one Friday night in our house. Every week, we have “Pizza Friday” in our house and while I am a simple gal who likes pepperoni, mushrooms and onions on her pizza, sometimes when I ask the kids what they fancy, they come up with really unusual toppings. Like chicken parm!
I start off by making the chicken parmesan. I dip a flattened chicken breast in egg, then cheesy breadcrumbs. Then I fry it in some olive oil and slice it very thinly before adding it as a topping along with tomato, cheese, oregano, salt and pepper. This needs just 10 minutes in the oven, so it’s quick too.
To make the Chicken Parmesan Pizza, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 475 °F.
Beat the eggs together with a whisk in a medium-sized bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and the grated parmesan cheese and set to one side.
Dip the chicken breast in the beaten egg until it is fully coated. Then move it to the bowl with the parmesan crumb mixture. Make sure that the bread crumbs stick to the chicken breast.
Heat 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Fry the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until it turns golden brown.
Allow the chicken to rest on a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Slice into thin strips and place to one side.
Transfer the dough to a work surface and roll it out into 2 bases.
Spoon the pizza sauce onto the bases and spread it out evenly. Top with the parmesan chicken slices, cheese and tomatoes and sprinkle with some oregano, salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the pizza in the oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is bubbling.
Garnish with some fresh basil and serve!
