Cast-Iron Skillet Pizza With Red Peppers, Chicken & Spinach
Serves 5Active Time: 15 minutes
- 1/2 cup jarred roasted red peppers, rinsed
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, peeled
- Pinch of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 pound whole-wheat pizza dough
- 1/2 cup chopped cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
- Fresh basil for garnish
2. Combine red peppers, oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a blender. Puree until smooth.
3. Roll and/or stretch pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Carefully place the pan on a heatproof surface (remember, the handle will be hot), and transfer the dough to it. Spread pureed sauce over dough and top with chicken, spinach, mozzarella, and goat cheese.
4. Bake the pizza on the lower rack until the crust is browned and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with basil, if desired.
