Seriously. I have a lot of pizza ovens.Let me show you the best after hundreds of hours testing. Read my in-depth pizza oven reviews!Instructions
- Prepare your pizza dough a day ahead of time to give the dough time to cold ferment.
- Begin by making the Alfredo sauce. In a large skillet, over medium heat, add the garlic and butter. Cook for 1 minute, then add the flour. Whisk until the butter and flour create a thick paste. Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes.
- Add the milk while still whisking to ensure no lumps form. Allow to heat and for the milk to thicken.
- Once thick, add the heavy cream and salt. Remove from the heat and set it aside.
- Preheat your pizza oven until the center of the stone reaches 800F.
- Toss the cubed, cooked chicken with Cajun seasoning and garlic powder. Set aside.
- Stretch out your dough into a 12" round. Top with Alfredo sauce, fresh mozz, and the chicken.
- Place into your pizza oven and cook for 2 minutes, or until bubbly and browned, ensuring to rotate frequently as needed.
- Remove from the oven and top with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve and enjoy!
