Ingredients

Units Scale

Base

  • 1 Loaf French Bread

Protein

  • 2 cups Cooked &; Sliced Chicken Breasts

Vegetables

  • 1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
  • 1/2 cup Purple Onion, sliced

Sauce and Cheese

  • 1 Jar Alfredo Pasta Sauce (approximately 15 oz)
  • 1 (16 oz) Package Mozzarella Cheese or Italian Blend Cheese

Seasoning

  • Fresh Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Slice French Bread: Cut the loaf of French bread in half lengthwise to create two flat surfaces for the pizza toppings.
  2. Spread Alfredo Sauce: Evenly spread a generous layer of Alfredo pasta sauce over the cut sides of the French bread, ensuring full coverage for a creamy base.
  3. Add Toppings: Layer the fresh spinach leaves, sliced purple onion, and cooked, sliced chicken breasts evenly over the Alfredo sauce.
  4. Top with Cheese: Generously sprinkle the mozzarella cheese or Italian blend cheese on top of the layered toppings to ensure a luscious, melted cheese finish.
  5. Season: Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over the assembled pizza for added flavor, adjusting to your taste preference.
  6. Bake: Place the prepared French bread pizzas on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Broil for Crispiness: For a golden and crispy cheese topping, switch the oven to broil and broil the pizza for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Notes

  • Use day-old French bread for a sturdier base that holds toppings better without getting soggy.
  • Substitute cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience and enhanced flavor.
  • Consider adding other vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers for extra nutrition and color.
  • Adjust baking time based on your oven and the thickness of the bread.
  • Broiling enhances cheese texture but requires close attention to avoid burning.
