Ingredients

1 refrigerated pizza crust OR prepared box mix
1/3 cup Garlic Basil Pesto Sauce, plus more for drizzling
1 8 ounce ball fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
2 Roma tomatoes sliced
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and spray a 12" pizza pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Roll pizza dough out onto prepared pizza pan, poke holes in it with a fork. Prebake for 5 minutes.
While the crust is pre-baking, slice your cheese and tomatoes.
Top crust with pesto sauce. I thinned mine a bit with olive oil to help it spread a little better.
Add slices of cheese, then shredded chicken. Top with tomatoes and drizzle with more pesto sauce.
Bake for about 13 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Slice and serve hot.
