Blackened Chicken Pizza

INGREDIENTS:

6 tsp. Blackened Seasoning

3 chicken breasts, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into 1/2 inch cubes

8 slices of bacon, cut into small pieces

4 TBL butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

3 green onions, chopped

2 TBL flour

1/4 cup white wine

3/4 cup milk

2 TBL chopped basil

1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1 cup parmesan cheese

2 pizza crusts (either store bought, or you can use my recipe)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 450.

With 1 TBL of butter, cook chicken in a skillet and cover with 5 tsp of blackened seasoning, until chicken is cooked through. Remove when done and in same pan (with seasonings still in it) cook the pieces of bacon until done. Remove and drain grease.

In another skillet, melt 2 TBL of butter and add garlic and green onions. Cook for 2 minutes and add flour. Cook another 2 minutes and add wine and milk. Whisk until thickened, and then add basil and 1 tsp of blackened seasoning.

You will use either your pizza dough or pizza crust to assemble the pizza now- first, spread the cream mixture on the crust, top with mozzarella cheese, chicken, bacon crumbles, spinach, parmesan cheese and more mozzarella. Bake for 15-20 or until lightly browned. 

For desert, we bought Blue Bunny's Sedona Frozen Yogurt Granola Sandwich (Double Strawberry Flavor) it's a low fat ice-cream treat that was really good after the pizza!
