Description

Teriyaki-marinated chicken and canned pineapple bring Hawaiian-inspired flavor to this easy pizza that's great for entertaining.

Ingredients

1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup teriyaki marinade
1 cooking spray
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, drained
3/4 cup pizza sauce
1 (14 ounce) package refrigerated pizza crust
10 slices Canadian bacon, quartered
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
1 pinch dried oregano, or to taste

Directions

1 Marinate chicken breasts in teriyaki marinade in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
2 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Place marinated chicken on the prepared pan; discard excess marinade.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes. Keep oven on.
4 Lay drained pineapple tidbits between paper towels to pick up excess juice.
5 Place pizza crust on a baking sheet and cover with sauce.
6 Dice cooled chicken into small pieces. Cover pizza sauce with Canadian bacon, then chicken pieces, then with pineapple. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and top with oregano.
7 Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is a light golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and cut into triangles.
