Chicken Parmesan Recipe for Pizza

Ingredients –

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 oz shredded mozzarella
2 Boboli Italian bread shells (or similar), 6 inches across
2 tablespoons grated parmesan
10 fresh basil leaves, cut into strips
14 ½ oz can Italian style stewed tomatoes
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Preparation:

Heat grill to medium.

Stir the salt and pepper into the olive oil, then brush this mixture over both sides of the chicken breasts.

Grill the chicken for about 8 minutes, turning it once, until it is cooked through.

This might take 10 minutes if the chicken is thick. Let it cool on a cutting board then cut it into crosswise strips.

Spread half a cup of the tomatoes on each bread shell, keeping within half an inch of the edge.

Arrange the chicken on top and then the mozzarella.

Grill for a couple of minutes, then cover the grill and give them another couple of minutes or keep cooking until the cheese melts.

Top the pizzas with parmesan and basil.

Serves 4
