Begin by slicing the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner pieces. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and a bit of olive oil. Heat your skillet on medium-high heat, then add the seasoned chicken. Cook for about 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before cutting it into bite-sized cubes.
Preheat your oven to 475°F. If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat. Lay out your pizza crust (homemade or store-bought) on a lightly floured surface or directly on a baking sheet. Spread a thin, even layer of pizza sauce over the crust using a spoon.
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella over the sauce, ensuring the cheese covers most of the surface. Spread the cooked chicken cubes evenly across the pizza. For an added touch, sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top to enhance the aroma. If you like experimenting, add more toppings like sliced onions, jalapeños, or fresh basil at this stage.
Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes. Keep an eye on it as it cooks; you’ll know it’s ready when the cheese is bubbling and slightly golden, and the crust feels crispy to the touch.
Once the pizza is out of the oven, drizzle your hot honey across the surface. The combination of sweet and spicy flavors balances beautifully with the crispy crust and cheesy toppings. Slice the pizza into pieces, garnish with fresh herbs if you’d like, and serve warm.
