This pizza chicken recipe has all the best pizza vibes in one easy chicken dinner! It's smothered in pizza sauce and has plenty of pepperoni, tomatoes, and melty cheese.
📝 Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (14 once) jar DeLallo Pizzeria Style Pizza Sauce
- 2 ounces DeLallo Sliced Pepperoni (or to taste)
- 1 medium tomato (sliced)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- Fresh basil (torn/chopped, to taste)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 375F and move the rack to the middle position.
- 2Season both sides of each piece of chicken with the garlic powder and salt & pepper.
- 3Add the oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, sear the chicken for 5 minutes/side.
- 4Transfer the chicken to a 9x13 casserole dish. Pour in the pizza sauce and spoon it evenly over/around the chicken.
- 5Sprinkle the mozzarella over each chicken breast.
- 6Top the chicken breasts with the tomato slices and pepperoni.
- 7Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes. If your chicken breasts are on the smaller side, try 15 minutes, and very large ones may need 25 minutes.
- 8Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes prior to serving (this will ensure it's juicy). The chicken's temperature will continue rising a few degrees as it rests. Chicken is safe to eat at 165F.
- 9Sprinkle with fresh basil and enjoy!
