Directions

Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken in the butter until no longer pink and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes; remove from heat and set aside.
Combine the ricotta cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave for 1 minute; stir to combine. Spread the mixture over the pizza crust. Scatter the mozzarella cheese evenly over the pizza. Arrange the cooked chicken, broccoli, and mushrooms evenly on top of the pizza.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.

"The ricotta sauce is fabulous! I went with another reviewer and added red sauce underneath. Before cooking the chicken, I shook on some garlic powder, Italian seasonining, and Spike spice blend. I ..." See moresauteed fresh sliced mushrooms and diced onions with a crushed clove of garlic. Two crushed cloves in the ricotta sauce and voila - lots of flavor! I left out the broccoli b/c I didn't have any, but will add that next time. DH says it's the best pizza I've made AND that it was better than our go-to pizza place. High praise - thank you so much!"

"This was very bland. My kids didn't even like it, and they love broccoli. I have no idea why this is rated so high. It is really lacking in the flavor department and not worth the extra calories.. I'd..." See more stick with tomato sauce."
