How to Make Pesto Chicken Or Shrimp Pizza
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until it foams.
- Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter and 1 medium onion (sliced) to the skillet. Stir to coat.
- Cover and cook for 5 minutes until onions soften.
- Uncover and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until onions are nicely browned and caramelized, stirring halfway through.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon sugar (omit if using sweet onions).
- While onions caramelize, spread 2 tablespoons roasted garlic over your pizza crust.
- Spread 1/2 cup pesto evenly over the garlic-topped crust.
- Top with 1.5 cups cooked chicken or shrimp, caramelized onions, sautéed mushrooms, 1/2 cup sliced tomatoes, and 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite cheese blend).
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly browned.
