I took the easy road and used pizza dough from a box. I also used store bought reduced fat caesar dressing. The best part of this pizza for me is the pinenuts! I toasted them before hand to bring out the nutty and buttery flavor. I also added mushrooms to the pizza, which I don't believe are on the restaurant's chicken caesar pizza.
Ingredients
Pizza dough
2 chicken breasts
1 package of mushrooms, sliced
olive oil
Fresh Parmesan cheese
2 bunches romaine lettuce
1/4 cup caesar dressing
fresh grated black pepper
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted to golden brown for 5 minutes at 350 degrees - watch these carefully!
Directions
Grill chicken and slice into bite sized pieces. Form pizza dough and spread out on pan. Drizzle olive oil on the pizza dough. Arrange chicken and mushrooms on the pizza and cover with cheese. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 - 22 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
While the pizza is baking cut lettuce into bite sized pieces. Mix in dressing and grate shredded cheese over the top.
Allow pizza to cool for about 5 minutes and top with the caesar salad. Sprinkle pine nuts on the top and season with black pepper to taste. Cut and serve with a fork and knife.
