a few nights ago, i was feeling pizza. i seem to always default to my favorite, go-to toppings - like roasted veggies - so i was determined to push the envelope (at least a bit) more than usual...
and this is what i came up with:
egg pizza
1/2 olive oil dough recipe {here}
1/2 cup shredded chicken (i used leftover bbq chicken)
1/4 cup chopped kalamata olives
3 eggs
2-4 oz crumbled feta
1/2 cup marinara sauce
cracked pepper
chopped basil
preheat oven to 425 degrees.
1. sprinkle cornmeal on pizza stone (or a baking tray) and stretch dough.
2. spread the dough evenly with the sauce, followed by 3 cracked eggs (yolks intact), chicken, olives and feta.
3. bake for 15-20 min & then remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before cutting.
4. season with cracked pepper and then sprinkle with fresh basil.
mangia! mangia!
craig really loved this protein-packed pizza because the eggs added an awesome, creamy richness to the meal. definitely will make it again!
you wondering what i did with the other 1/2 of the dough??? we enjoyed it the other night topped with homemade pesto mixed with a little marinara, olives and provolone cheese. so yummy too : )
