Chilli chicken pizza with pesto
INGREDIENTS

4 x 23cm souvlaki pitta bread rounds
½ cup (140g) pizza paste
2 cups (200g) shredded pizza cheese
1½ cups (320g) chopped barbecue chicken
¼ teaspoon dried chilli flakes
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon olive oil
200g large cherry tomatoes, sliced thickly
1/3 cup (65g) basil pesto
METHOD

Preheat oven to 240°C (220°C fan-forced).

Place the pittas on two large oven trays lined with baking paper. Spread the pittas with the pizza paste and sprinkle over half the cheese.

Top pittas with combined chicken, chilli flakes, garlic and oil. Arrange chicken mixture and tomatoes over pizzas. Top with remaining cheese.

Bake pizzas for 15 minutes or until browned lightly and bases are crisp.

Drizzle pizzas with pesto and serve with green salad, if desired.
