Pita Bread Chicken Pizza
[info]icicle mentioned some pita bread pizza she made, and it sounded fun, so i asked for the recipe. then i sorta changed/expanded on it, using ingredients i already had.

her recipe is a bit healthier:

naked chik'n cutlets, microwaved about 30 seconds
brush both sides with olive oil, sprinkle poultry seasoning and italian seasoning
put in oven for about 5 minutes

high fiber pita bread, spread with one teaspoon olive oil
sprinkle Italian seasoned bread crumbs around the edges of the "crust"
chopped garlic, spread in center
grated parmesan sprinkled over it

1/4 cup part skim shredded mozzarella cheese (she said she doubles this because she loves cheese)
sprinkle pizza seasoning on top
cut chicken (out of oven by this point) into strips or cubes and place on top
put back in oven for 3-5 minutes (long enough for cheese to bubble)


my version:
Pita Bread ALFREDO Chicken Pizza

i used real chicken, which i marinated in italian salad dressing overnight (at least). then i cooked it in a skillet with italian seasoning.

i spread chopped garlic (from a jar) and ALFREDO SAUCE in the center, and sprinkled with parmesan (skipped the olive oil)

(my pitas didn't say "high fiber" and were also "pre-cut"...i guess for stuffing purposes)

i sprinkled the bread crumbs, but i can't see that they made any difference really.
i added the chicken and cheese, but i just sprinkled the cheese enough to cover, i don't think i put near 1/4 or 1/2 cup (i figured with the alfredo sauce it didn't need as much cheese on top)

10 minutes at 400­° (at 3-5 minutes the cheese wasn't melted)

voila!

they taste yum to me. and this could totally be tailored to make regular pizzas, with red sauce and pepperoni or whatever. not sure how well they'll reheat, but i'm taking one for lunch tomorrow so i'll find out.
