Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup cooked chicken breast, sliced (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you own a pizza stone, place it inside the oven now to let it heat up thoroughly.

    Prepare the Alfredo Sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for approximately 1 minute, or until it becomes fragrant. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream while stirring continuously. Allow this mixture to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, which will help thicken the sauce slightly.

      Incorporate the Cheese: Slowly add in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until it completely melts and the sauce turns creamy and smooth. Season your Alfredo sauce with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to your taste. Once combined and well-seasoned, remove from heat.

        Prepare the Pizza Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pre-made pizza dough to your desired thickness, aiming for a uniform shape. Once rolled out, carefully transfer the dough to a pizza peel or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

          Assemble the Pizza: Using a ladle or spoon, spread a generous layer of your creamy garlic Alfredo sauce over the surface of the pizza dough, ensuring to leave a small border for the crust. Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then layer the optional sliced cooked chicken on top if desired.

            Bake the Pizza: With caution, transfer the assembled pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or slide the baking sheet into the hot oven. Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.

              Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for about one minute. Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the top for a vibrant garnish that adds both color and a burst of flavor.

                Slice and Enjoy: Cut the pizza into slices and serve while hot. Delight in your creamy garlic Alfredo pizza alongside a refreshing side salad or your favorite beverage for the perfect meal experience!
