How to Make Garlic Herb Pizzas
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic herb butter and when it’s just about melted add the chicken. Stir to coat and saute until the chicken is cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove from the stove and allow to cool slightly.
- Divide the pizza dough into 4 pieces and stretch each out to desired thickness. Place on prepared baking sheets. Spread desired amount of pizza sauce on each piece of dough. Top each with 1/4 of the chicken, cheese, onion, red pepper and feta cheese. Repeat with remaining three.
- Bake 14-17 minutes, or until the desired doneness. Serve immediately.
Tips for Storing
- Refrigerate leftovers – Place slices in an airtight container; they stay tasty for up to 3 days.
- To reheat – Use an oven set to 350°F to preserve crispness, or reheat in a skillet to revive that nice crust.
- Freezing method – Freeze individual slices or whole pizzas wrapped tightly in plastic, then foil. Bake from frozen at 375°F until heated through.
- Store components separately – You can refrigerate chicken and dough separately for up to 2 days.

I am super excited to partner with Land O’ Lakes for their Kitchen Conversations series where they are working with food bloggers such as The Pioneer Woman, A Farmgirls Dabbles and A Spicy Perspective, to name a few. The conversation? Butter, which happens to be a subject that’s near and dear to my heart.
Hi! I’m Heather
I’m Heather, a recipe developer and content creator based in Vancouver, Washington. I started Farmgirl Gourmet in 2006 because I believed weeknight dinners shouldn’t be boring and gourmet shouldn’t mean complicated. I’m also the co-founder of Spiceology, so safe to say I think about food for a living. Stick around for recipes that actually make it into your regular rotation.
Oh heck yes!!! Domino’s & Pizza Hut got NOTHING on you! 😉
