Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

03

Step

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir until smooth and well combined. Spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the pizza crust.

04

Step

Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese generously over the ricotta base. Arrange the cooked chicken, broccoli florets, and drained mushrooms evenly on top of the pizza.

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of olive oil before baking.
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese can be added after baking for a more intense cheesy flavor.
Feel free to experiment with other vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, or zucchini.
If you don't have pre-baked pizza crust, you can use store-bought dough or make your own from scratch.
