Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Chicken Parmesan Pizza
Making your own gluten-free pizzas is often times better than searching for a decently priced, good tasting gluten-free pizza at a local restaurant, depending on what restaurant options are available to you where you live. If I’m being honest, many times, gluten-free pizza at a restaurant feels like a rip off because it is so overpriced compared to a gluten-filled pizza, is rather small, and the crust is very thin. This is why a couple of pre-made pizza crusts from the grocery store can be a lifesaver (or at least a penny saver!) when you’re feeling like having a pizza night. Take this Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Chicken Parmesan Pizza, for instance. Think you’d find something like this at a restaurant that’s gluten-free and dairy-free, plus reasonably priced and enough to actually fill you up? Yeah, I don’t think so.
For this pizza, I used a couple of gluten-free pizza crusts – a few brands that you can find pretty easily are Schar, Udi’s and Mama Mary’s, or you can make your own pizza crust with a pre-packaged dough mix or a from-scratch pizza crust recipe. I also used dairy-free mozzarella and Parmesan shreds and jarred pizza sauce (feel free to make your own pizza sauce, but I like the easier route), and then most importantly I used gluten-free chicken tenders from Bell & Evans. I love their chicken because it’s humanely raised, air-chilled, and delicious.
This is such a fun, delicious, quick and easy recipe and I think you’re going to love it. Let us know in the comments section if you prefer to order gluten-free pizza from a restaurant or make your own!
