Fajita Pizza

By , About.com Guide

This unusual pizza is flavored so wonderfully. Make it as mild or as spicy as you like depending on the strength of the salsa and seasonings. The recipe for Yeast Pizza Crust is foolproof. Or you can use two premade crusts for an easier recipe.

Ingredients:

  • Yeast Pizza Crust Recipe
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 Tbsp. fajita seasoning blend OR Homemade Fajita Mix
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup thick and chunky salsa
  • 1/4 cup diced green chilies OR 2 Tbsp. diced jalapeno peppers
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Muenster cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare and prebake one Yeast Pizza Crust as directed in recipe. Or substitute two premade pizza crusts.

Cut chicken crosswise into 1/2" strips. In medium bowl, place chicken strips and sprinkle with Fajita Seasoning Mix. Toss gently.

In large skillet, heat oil and cook coated chicken, onion, bell pepper, and garlic until chicken is cooked and vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and add salsa and green chilies.

Divide mixture between the two pizza crusts and spread to cover; top with cheeses. Bake at 425 degrees for 15-25 minutes until crusts are golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly. Serves 8-10
