Chicken Pizza with Artichokes and Peppers

This chicken pizza recipe is full of flavor and goodness.  It has a nice mix of garden fresh veggies to up the nutritional content and keep the calories down when compared to heavier toppings.

This chicken pizza is super easy to make.

I used a pre-baked pizza crust so that the recipe would be ready quickly. It just takes about 9 minutes in the oven and is ready for your toppings. A rotisserie chicken adds to the easy recipe.

You can even use the rotisserie chicken container in some gardening ways later.  Check out my rotisserie chicken mini terrarium for a few ideas.

The toppings I used were canned artichoke hears and a trio of colorful peppers as well as some olives.  Fresh mozzarella rounds out the ingredient list.

Spread the pasta sauce over the cooked crust and arrange the chicken, artichoke hearts, peppers and olives on top.
Sprinkle with the cheese and put under the broiler for about 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese melts.
