An easy, homemade Alfredo sauce (see the recipe below)
Chopped, cooked chicken breast (if you’ve got some of this Crockpot
Shredded Chicken or this Instant Pot Shredded Chicken hanging around,
this recipe is even easier!)
Crispy bacon (make a batch of this Air Fryer Bacon, chop it and stash it in the freezer for quick prep!)
Chopped spinach — just a bit to make us feel better about all that cheese and bacon 😉
Ingredients and Substitutions:
Pizza dough: you can swap the homemade pizza dough in this recipe for a
store bought tube or grab some from a local bakery. Or use naan rounds
and make individual pizzas!
Sauce: you can swap the homemade Alfredo sauce for store bought if
you’re in a pinch. I never do because I haven’t found a jarred Alfredo
sauce that we love!
Chicken: not feeling chicken tonight? Cooked, crumbled Italian sausage is a great swap, or leave it out and up the bacon!
Bacon: you can leave the bacon out if you prefer, or swap for turkey bacon to lighten things up a little
Spinach: you can add more or less spinach according to your tastes!
Vegetables: feel free to add even more veggies to this Alfredo Pizza if
your family enjoys them — broccoli, mushrooms, roasted red peppers or
sauteed onions would be great additions!

prep the pizza dough up to 4 days in advance and stash it in the freezer, covered in plastic wrap.
cook the chicken and bacon and store in the fridge up to 4 days before
making your pizza (or store in the freezer for easy pizza toppings later
on!)
make the sauce and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week
shred the cheese and store in the fridge for a week or two, or purchase
pre-shredded cheese (although it never melts quite as nicely!)
Assemble the pizza entirely but do not bake — cover lightly with plastic
wrap and store in the refrigerator up to 24 hours before baking (you
may not want to do this if you are only using salsa as the sauce,
because it could become soggy).

Pizza Dough
▢1 ½-2 cups all purpose flour 195g plus more for rolling
▢1 package instant or quick yeast 2 ¼ teaspoons
▢¾ teaspoon salt
▢1 teaspoon granulated sugar
▢½ teaspoon dried oregano
▢¼ teaspoon garlic powder
▢⅔ cup warm water
▢2 tablespoons oil
Alfredo Sauce
▢2 tablespoons butter
▢1 teaspoon minced garlic
▢1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
▢¼ teaspoon salt
▢1 pinch black pepper
▢2 tablespoons all purpose flour
▢1 cup cream (18-30% fat recommended)
Chicken Alfredo Pizza
▢2 cups cooked, chopped chicken breast (1-2 chicken breasts)
▢1/2 cup finely chopped spinach
▢¼ cup cooked, crumbled bacon (about 2 slices)
▢2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
▢2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Pizza Dough
In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup of flour, yeast, salt, sugar, oregano and garlic.
Add water and oil and stir until combined — it will be a very wet dough.
Add just enough of the remaining flour so that a soft but not sticky
dough forms. Add the flour gradually and knead briefly until combined so
that you can feel when it is ready — it will still be soft (not feel
firm or tough) but won’t stick to your hands. To knead, simply press the
flour into the dough, fold the dough and press, fold and press.
Place in a lightly greased bowl and set covered in a warm, draft-free place to rise until doubled, about 40 minutes.
Alfredo Sauce
In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and cook 1 minute.
Stir in flour and cook 1-2 minutes. Whisk in cream and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
Chicken Alfredo Pizza
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and lightly grease a 12″ pizza pan.
Roll out pizza dough so that it is just larger than your pizza pan.
Place pizza dough on pizza pan and fold the edges over to form a thicker
crust, pinching down to seal.
Spread Alfredo sauce over pizza dough and top with chicken, spinach,
bacon, mozzarella and Parmesan. (If desired, you can reserve some to
sprinkle on top of the cheese)
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until light golden brown.
Slice and serve immediately.
