🍝 Bolognese Pasta Pizza with Chicken Meatballs Recipe 🍕

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Meatballs

In a bowl, mix ground chicken, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, egg, salt, and pepper.
Form small meatballs (about 1 inch in diameter).
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan and cook the meatballs over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside.

Step 2: Make the Bolognese Sauce

In the same pan, add olive oil, onions, and garlic, cooking until softened.
Add ground beef (or turkey) and cook until browned. Drain excess fat.
Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.

Step 3: Cook the Pasta & Mix with Cheese

Cook spaghetti or fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain.
In a bowl, toss the pasta with mozzarella, Parmesan, and heavy cream (or Alfredo sauce) until well combined.

Step 4: Assemble the Pizza

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out the pizza dough and place it on a greased baking sheet or pizza stone.
Brush the dough with olive oil, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
Spread a thin layer of Bolognese sauce over the dough.
Top with the cheesy pasta mixture, evenly spreading it across the pizza.
Arrange the chicken meatballs on top.
Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Step 5: Bake & Serve

Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh basil.
Slice, serve, and enjoy this Bolognese Pasta Pizza with Chicken Meatballs!
