Chicken Pizza

We love pizza in this house. I like to make it homemade as much as I like the easy nights when we just order delivery from Papa John's. This recipe has been around forever - my mom started making it a long time ago and it's just a nice little change from the regular old sausage or pepperoni pizza that we have all the time. It's so much healthier and has a great flavor. It's great with a Caesar salad or just an Italian salad and garlic bread. Definitely one to give a try when you need a change from the same old-same old!

Chicken Pizza

2 Pizza Crusts (I buy the crusts that are ready to go from my grocery store - they come 2 per bag and they are really good)
2-3 Chicken Breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
1-2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1 Small Onion, finely chopped
1 Can Petite Diced Tomatoes (I usually buy the type that is seasoned with garlic and olive oil or something like that)
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Dry Basil
1/2 tsp. Pepper
1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
2-3 Cups Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Parmesan Cheese to taste

Brush both pizza crusts lightly with olive oil and set aside. Saute chicken in olive oil with onion until chicken is cooked through. Once cooked through, add tomatoes, salt, basil, pepper and garlic powder and stir well. Simmer on low for about 10 minutes. Put 1/2 of chicken mixture on each crust. Top with cheeses and bake at 450 for 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbly.
