This pizza chicken recipe has all the best pizza vibes in one easy chicken dinner! It's smothered in pizza sauce and has plenty of pepperoni, tomatoes, and melty cheese.

Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (14 once) jar pizza sauce brand: DeLallo Pizzeria Style
- 2 ounces pepperoni or to taste, brand: DeLallo; sliced
- 1 medium tomato sliced
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- basil torn/chopped, to taste, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375F and move the rack to the middle position.
- Season both sides of each piece of chicken with the garlic powder and salt & pepper.
- Add the oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, sear the chicken for 5 minutes/side.
- Transfer the chicken to a 9x13 casserole dish. Pour in the pizza sauce and spoon it evenly over/around the chicken.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella over each chicken breast.
- Top the chicken breasts with the tomato slices and pepperoni.
- Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes. If your chicken breasts are on the smaller side, try 15 minutes, and very large ones may need 25 minutes.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes prior to serving (this will ensure it's juicy). The chicken's temperature will continue rising a few degrees as it rests. Chicken is safe to eat at 165F.
- Sprinkle with fresh basil and enjoy!
Notes
- If you have a large, oven-safe skillet (I suggest at least 12"), you can use it for the recipe instead of transferring it to a casserole dish.
