Ingredients
- 1 store bought pizza dough
- Cornmeal or flour, for dough
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (2 turns of the pan plus a drizzle)
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- Salt and pepper
- Handful flat-leaf parsley, chopped
- Couple pinches crushed red pepper flakes
- Couple pinches dried oregano
- 1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 1 1/2 cups shredded provolone
- 5 to 6 leaves basil, torn or shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Coat hands and work surface with a little cornmeal or flour. Using your hand or a rolling pin, form a 14-inch round pizza. Place pizza on a baking sheet or pizza stone and poke the top with a few holes. Drizzle a little bit of extra-virgin olive oil down over the dough and place in oven. Bake 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil. Add meat and break it up with a wooden spoon. To browned meat, add garlic and onions, then season with salt and pepper. Cook together 5 to 6 minutes then add parsley, red pepper flakes, oregano and the tomatoes to the pan. Heat the sauce through.
- Remove pizza from oven after 10 minutes and top with sauce and cheeses. Return to oven and bake until golden and bubbly, another 10 to12 minutes. Top the pizza with basil, cut and serve.

Great pizza without much fuss to make.
Super duper tasty. We will be making this again and of course eat it.
SPOT ON! Tastes just like Chicken Parmesan. We loved this…..Awesome!
Used home made dough & pizza sauce I always have on hand in the freezer & shredded rotisserie chicken. Just topped dough with sauce, shredded chicken, cheeses, chopped fresh basil & oregano and added some bacon. Everything’s better with bacon! Yum!
Tasty, fast and kid-friendly recipes. This is a winner in my book!
My husband and I love this recipe!
Very good!! My 5 year old’s favorite dinner is chicken parm. I made this for lunch, she said it was the best lunch ever. Very proud mama. Keep’em coming Rachel!!!
Rating based on following substitutions: I use a store-bought crust to cut out time, then use homemade/jar spaghetti sauce and use whatever cheese I have on hand – mozzarella, provolone, parmesan, etc. Such a great simple recipe that fills you up and definitely less salt and grease than ordering in pizza or frying up real chicken parmesan. Makes a great leftover for lunch too!
This was nothing special but easy to make.
I made this recipe for my family, and we all just loved it. I will definitely be making this again! If you have kids, you should try this recipe, I think they’ll like it!!! I love you Rachael Ray! Your my hero!
