If I really love a food, I am going to put it on a pizza. I’ve made all kinds of  pizza’s like Mexican Pizza, Cheeseburger Pizza, Chicken Fajita Pizza and even Philly Pizza. I like pizza. A lot.

Roasted chicken (or a rotisserie) gives this pizza more sustenance but you could certainly go vegetarian and never miss it.

The base, under the cheese, is a sweet chili sauce. (looks kind of slimy here, but it’s all good)
