Chicken and Sun-Dried Tomato Pita Pizzas

Making your own pizza is kind of a drag.

If you make your own pizza dough, it takes a lot of technique and finesse—not to mention double the cooking time.

It’s hard to not just grab a frozen pizza and do it the easy way.

That’s why I like to do “pita” pizzas. No dough-making is necessary. The Pizzas turn out crispy and really hit the spot. Plus, they’re perfectly proportioned as little personal pan pizzas.

I’ve experimented a few times with pita pizzas using whole wheat pitas and different toppings. I really love a prosciutto-fig-and-arugula topping. This one is a close second, though.

The mixture of alfredo sauce, chicken and sun-dried tomatoes is God tier. It tastes so wonderful and is a fantastic flavor bomb.

Enjoy!
