Spicy Chicken Pumpkin Pizza
Think pizza and pumpkin can’t go together? This chicken pumpkin pizza will change your mind. The sweetness of the pumpkin paired with the spice of the chipotle peppers makes for a delicious, balanced sauce. I love that this recipe incorporates healthy ingredients in a fun, family-friendly way.
Ingredients
- 2 packages (7-1/2 ounces each) frozen cauliflower pizza crust or 2 prebaked 12-inch thin whole wheat pizza crusts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3/4 cup canned pumpkin
- 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1-1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup mild chunky salsa
- 1-1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- minced fresh cilantro, optional
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°. Place crusts on ungreased baking sheets; brush with oil. Combine pumpkin, minced chipotle peppers, salt and pepper; spread over crusts. Combine chicken and salsa; spoon over pumpkin layer. Top with cheese and red onion.
- Bake until edges are lightly browned and cheese is melted, 12-15 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting. If desired, sprinkle with cilantro.
