Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 13 minutes
Total Time 23 minutes
Servings 8 servings

Equipment

  • rimmed baking sheet or pizza pan
  • Oven
  • rubber spatula or spoon
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • olive oil for drizzling
  • 1 pizza pizza dough enough for a 14-inch pizza
  • 4 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups chicken breasts roasted and shredded (about 2 breasts; about 2 cups shredded)
  • 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts drained and quartered
  • 4 ounces mozzarella cheese sliced
  • 4 ounces Parmesan cheese grated

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C). Lightly drizzle olive oil onto a rimmed baking sheet or pizza pan large enough for a 14-inch pizza.
  • Stretch or roll the pizza dough directly onto the oiled pan, shaping to about 14 inches. Drizzle a little more olive oil over the dough and spread it evenly.
  • Use a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the ricotta cheese over the dough, leaving a 1/2–1 inch border for the crust.
  • Evenly distribute the shredded roasted chicken over the ricotta, then arrange the drained, quartered artichoke hearts on top.
  • Top with sliced mozzarella and finish by sprinkling the grated Parmesan evenly over the pizza.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheeses are melted and bubbly.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven, let rest 1–2 minutes, slice, and serve.

Notes

  • Prep time excludes dough rising and chicken roasting time.
  • Rotisserie chicken can be used to save time.
  • Drain and quarter artichoke hearts well to avoid soggy pizza.
  • Use a rimmed baking sheet if you don't have a pizza pan.
