Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza is a perfect flavor storm of thin, crispy pizza topped with grilled chicken and Romaine lettuce combined with homemade Caesar dressing.
This is not your ordinary pizza; unless you’re like me and consider chicken caesar salad pizza normal.
‘Cause I really do, but I’m not exactly normal when it comes to food.
I LOVE pizza topped with any type of green – it gives typical pizza an entirely different texture and experience.
Plus you get some roughage; and erryyybody needs some roughage.
Well, ok, except for my husband. He can eat an entire pound of Mozzarella cheese like it’s an apple and never experience an issue with irregularity. When I say an entire pound, I’m not even exaggerating. He has to have the entire block, slice it thin and then dip each piece in cocktail sauce. He seems to think that’s an ordinary, regular ass snack.
I just really don’t think that’s normal.
Although, I have to say I’m jealous of that, almost talent-like, ability.
How To Make Chicken Caesar Salad Pizza
I’ve always loved Muenster cheese on pizza, along with other cheeses, but feel free to use your favorite melty cheeses.
I just add some Caesar dressing on the unbaked dough, followed by some of the cheese, then the chopped chicken, followed by more cheese. The truth is, any order you put it in will come out delicious.
Although you could definitely bake this on a baking sheet, my pizza stone makes the very BEST pizzas. It’s Pampered Chef, and I’ve had it for 10 years now – 10!!!
I have used the hell out of it and because it’s seasoned so well, anything I put on it turns out amazing. I made this a little on the thin side, but making a deep pan version in a cast iron skillet would be delicious, too.
We just love all things pizza around here.
