Santa Fe Pizza

Santa Fe Chicken Pizza


I will show you how to assemble the pizza, and all the recipes are under the pictures. The toppings make enough to cover about two twelve inch pizzas.

Sprinkle caramelized onions all over the dough. (I usually use more onions than this, but it's all I had left from the aforementioned girls night)



Add mozzarella cheese. (There is a restaurant supply store here in town that sells whole milk mozzarella for less than the low moisture variety at the regular grocery stores, so I use that. It is extremely soft, so it doesn't grate very well. I just ask them to slice it in sandwich slices and then I throw the slices on the pizza. It is so creamy and delicious when it melts!)



Next add the lime grilled chicken slices



Bake at 475 until crust is lightly golden brown and the cheese is melted. Garnish with some fresh chopped cilantro.



Let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve with salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
