Ingredients:
1 lb chicken breast or thighs (for a protein option)
2 cups of mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots)
1 package of pre-made pizza dough or homemade dough
1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh herbs like basil or parsley (optional, for garnish)
1 cup marinara sauce (for dipping, optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Ingredients: Start by chopping your chicken into bite-sized cubes. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Chop your vegetables into small pieces to ensure even cooking.
Cook the Chicken and Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set it aside. In the same pan, add your mixed vegetables and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they’re tender.
Assemble the Dough: Roll out your pizza dough onto a clean surface. If you’re using pre-made dough, simply unroll it. You can roll it into individual portions or a large rectangle, depending on your preference.
