A quick and delicious chicken pesto pizza made on soft naan bread, topped with tender chicken, fresh pesto, mozzarella cheese, and cherry tomatoes. Perfect for a flavorful weeknight meal.
Ingredients
2 pieces naan bread (approximately 8 inches each)
1/2 cup prepared basil pesto
1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (about 6 leaves)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Place the naan breads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush each naan bread lightly with olive oil to help crisp the base.
Spread 1/4 cup of basil pesto evenly over each naan bread, leaving a small border around the edges.
Distribute the cooked chicken evenly over the pesto on each naan.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken on each pizza.
Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes evenly on top of the cheese.
Season each pizza with salt and black pepper.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the pizzas.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the naan are golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes.
Garnish each pizza with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.
