A delightful twist on a classic pizza, featuring creamy avocado ranch sauce and savory toppings.
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking of the pizza crust.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and lemon zest, then cook until no longer pink, about 6-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, mash the avocado and mix with lemon juice and mayonnaise to create a creamy sauce.
Use a fork to mash the avocado for a smoother texture.
Spread the pizza dough onto a pizza pan and bake for 6-7 minutes until slightly golden.
Pre-baking prevents the crust from becoming soggy.
Spread the avocado sauce over the pre-baked crust. Top with cooked chicken, diced red onion, and tomato.
Distribute the toppings evenly for consistent flavor.
Sprinkle havarti and parmesan cheese over the toppings. Bake the pizza for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Check the pizza halfway through to ensure even baking.
Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve.
Use a pizza cutter for clean slices.
