Jerk-seasoned chicken finds its way to a pan pizza with mozzarella, red onion slices, finished with cilantro. A perfect chicken pizza!

Ingredients

  • 1 Prepared Pizza Dough
  • Olive Oil
  • Jerk Seasoning
  • 1 cup Grated Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1-2 Jerk Chicken Breast Cutlets, sliced into strips
  • 1/4 Small/Medium Red Onion, sliced into thin wedges
  • Fresh Cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

2

Generously oil a quarter sheet pan with olive oil.

3

Place the prepared dough ball on the pan and turn the dough over once to coat it in olive oil. Let the dough sit for about 15 minutes.

4

When the dough will let you pat it out to the pan edges without springing back too much, use your finger tips to push and press the dough out to the edges. Much like shaping a focaccia.

5

Sprinkle some of the leftover Jerk Seasoning over the whole dough. Then top with about 2/3 of the mozzarella cheese.

6

Scatter the sliced Jerk chicken breasts over the cheese. The scatter the onion slices and top with the remaining cheese.

7

Bake the pizza for 10-15 minutes, until the dough is puffed and golden and the cheese is melted and has begun to brown in spots.

8

Place the hot pan pizza on a wire rack to cool slightly. Then use a fish spatula to gently ease the pan pizza out onto the wire rack to cool a little more. Meanwhile, pick some cilantro leaves and finish the pizza off with the cilantro leaves as garnish.

9

Slice into squares.
