Chicken-Pesto Pizza

This is another one of the "duh" recipes. I'm not sure how D and I missed this until now, but we did. It is in the CL Superfast CB. Anyway, D made it on while I was driving home. It was good.
With the amount of times pizza dough is on sale and I have a coupon, definitely will have again.
We had with spinach salad.

Chicken-Pesto Pizza

Prep: 2 minutes; Cook: 17 minutes. Sauté the chicken while the crust bakes so your whole meal will be ready in under 20 minutes.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 2 [4 x 3-inch] pieces)

1 (10-ounce) can refrigerated pizza crust dough
Olive oil-flavored cooking spray
1 pound chicken breast tenders, chopped
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
3 tablespoons commercial pesto
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella or reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
Added a tomato to half the pizza

Preheat oven to 450°.

Unroll pizza crust dough onto a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; pat into a 12 x 8-inch rectangle. Bake at 450° for 9 minutes.

Sprinkle chicken with Italian seasoning. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken, and sauté 3 to 4 minutes or until done.

Spread pesto evenly over pizza crust; top with chicken, and sprinkle with cheese (and tomato). Bake at 450° for 5 minutes or until cheese melts. Cut into 8 pieces.
