Scale
- 1 lb Pizza dough (store-bought)
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 6 oz Soft brie cheese, sliced
- 1/2 cup Cranberry sauce
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 2 tsp Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep Oven: Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out pizza dough on floured surface to 12 inches wide
- Prepare Base: Transfer dough to baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle salt and pepper evenly
- Add Sauce: Spread cranberry sauce evenly over dough, leaving 1-inch border for crust
- Layer Toppings: Add shredded chicken, then fresh spinach leaves, followed by brie cheese slices
- Bake: Bake for 12-15 minutes until crust is golden brown and cheese bubbles
- Finish: Remove from oven, let cool for 3 minutes, slice into 8 pieces, and serve immediately
Notes
- Remove brie rind before slicing for easier melting and smoother texture throughout the pizza
- Pre-cook your chicken with herbs like thyme or rosemary to add extra depth of flavor to the pizza
- Use parchment paper under the dough to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal from baking sheet
- Let the pizza rest for 2-3 minutes after baking to allow cheese to set slightly for cleaner slicing
