Fajita Pizza Recipe

fajita pizza
If you have never had a fajita pizza you are missing out. My first time making a fajita pizza was just a few days ago, and it turned out so good I just had to post this recipe. This is basically chicken fajitas on a pizza. Pizza crust topped with salsa, chicken, sliced bell peppers, cheese, and onions. This will make a 12” pizza and for the crust, you can make your own, use a box mix, or a premade crust. I use the Pillsbury refrigerated pizza dough. All you need to do is unroll it and press onto your pizza pan. For the chicken, I actually rubbed the chicken with the spice mixture, grilled it and then cut into small pieces. Pre-baking the crust is important so it doesn’t get soggy. I always enjoy my pizza crust at least a little crispy. Enjoy.

I have made this twice already and me and my boyfriend love this. The only thing I do different is add a little seasoning to the veggies while I cook them before I add them to the pizza. It is soooo good. I love this site. Thanks so much!

Pretty much everything on your website looks like something I need to eat. However, started with this. Husband said he wasn't sure about it - he couldn't stop eating it! It was fantastic. Thanks for sharing yummy food ideas :)

Silly me, I read the rest of the recipe and found out that it was salt, I assumed that it probably was. Thanks!

On your spaghetti sauce recipe, after the brown sugar you have 1 tsp but you don\'t say what of, I was wondering what the missing ingredient was. By the way I enjoy your blog, I think it is very nice!
