Chicken Parm Pizza balls

This was an awesome recipe I found on another cooking blog that we decided to try last night. Dan ended up eating all of them minus 2, so you know they were good!



Ingredients
1 ball of fresh pizza dough
1-2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
1-2 cups of diced chicken (or any other meat)
2 tsp Italian seasoning (combine oregano, basil, and garlic)
1/4 cup olive oil
pizza or marinara sauce
Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease pie pan.

Grab a walnut-sized piece of dough and flatten. In each dough piece place a couple pieces of diced chicken and a tablespoon of cheese. Seal dough around meat and cheese and place seam side down in pie pan.

Repeat, placing approximately 16 dough balls in each pie plate.

Once assembled, drizzle oil over the balls and sprinkle with the herbs.

When ready to bake: bake at 400°F for 16-20 min. Serve with warm pizza or marinara sauce.
