Equipment

  • 1 Skillet for cooking chicken
  • 1 Casserole dish greased
  • 1 Oven preheated to 375°F

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast shredded
  • 1 cup creamy Alfredo sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 pre-made pizza dough rolled out
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sautéed mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Cook the chicken breasts in a skillet with olive oil until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Once done, let them cool slightly before shredding them into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste.
  • Roll out the pre-made pizza dough and place it in a greased casserole dish, pressing it to cover the bottom and slightly up the sides.
  • Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the dough, followed by an even layer of shredded chicken. Next, pour the creamy Alfredo sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  • Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

Serving

  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Pair with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.

Storage

  • Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.

Notes

Pro Tips: For a crispy crust, pre-bake the dough for 5 minutes. Mix cheese varieties for added depth.
Ingredient Substitutions: Use rotisserie chicken for convenience. Swap Alfredo with a low-fat version for a lighter meal.
How to Serve: Pair with a green salad or roasted veggies.
Storage & Freshness: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Make-Ahead Tips: Prepare the casserole and refrigerate before baking. Bake when ready to serve.
