Roasted Garlic Chicken & Mozzarella Pizza
from http://redstaryeast.com/

A simple, flavorful pizza made with a homemade pizza crust. Nothing but simple, fresh ingredients mingling together to produce a pizza that is anything but ordinary!

1 pizza crust
2-3 cloves roasted garlic, finely chopped
⅓ cup (80ml) Homemade Basil Pesto (or store-bought)
1 cup cooked, sliced chicken breast (about one 8-ounce breast)
1½ cups (6oz or 168g) shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh basil for topping (optional)

Preheat oven to 475°F (246°C). Allow to heat for at least 30 full minutes. Grease and dust baking sheet(s) with nonstick spray or with olive oil. Sprinkle with cornmeal (preferred for flavor and texture) or flour.

After 15 minutes, flatten dough on a lightly floured surface. You could also do this directly on cornmeal lined pizza pan. Shape into a 12-inch round circle, flattening and stretching the dough. If using a pizza stone, place the dough directly on baker's peels dusted with cornmeal.

Lift the edge of the dough up to create a lip around the edges. To prevent the filling from making your pizza crust soggy, brush the top lightly with olive oil. Using your fingers, push dents into the surface of the dough to prevent bubbling. Let rest for 15 minutes before topping.

Top the dough evenly with garlic, then spread the pesto on top. Add the chicken then sprinkle on the cheese. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Optional: For the last minute, move the oven rack to the top rack to really brown the edges. Remove from the oven and top with fresh basil, if desired.

Slice hot pizza and serve immediately. Store leftover pizza covered tightly in the refrigerator and reheat as you prefer. Baked pizza slices can be frozen up to 1 month and reheated as desired.

Toppings listed are enough for one 12-inch pizza.
