Rita's Pesto Alfredo Pizza

Rita's Alfredo Pesto Pizza Pie Drizzled with Truffle Honey 🍕

What You’ll Need:

• 1 ball of pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

• ½ cup of Pesto Bechamel sauce (blend béchamel with pesto for a creamy, herby base)

• 8 oz of Mozzarella Blend, shredded

• ½ cup of Nodine’s Smoked Chicken, sliced

• ¼ cup of Pancetta, cooked until crispy

• Fresh Basil leaves, for garnish

• ¼ cup of Parmesan Zest, finely grated

• 2-3 tablespoons of Truffleist Truffle Honey (for that perfect finishing touch)

How to Make It:

Preheat Your Oven:
Set your oven to 475°F (245°C) to achieve a crispy, golden crust. If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats for the best results.

Prepare the Dough:
On a lightly floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into your desired shape. If you prefer a thicker crust, keep the edges slightly thicker. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.

Add the Pesto Bechamel Sauce:
Spread an even layer of Pesto Bechamel Sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. This rich, creamy base will set the stage for incredible flavor.

Layer on the Toppings:

• Evenly sprinkle the Mozzarella Blend over the sauce.
  
  

• Add slices of Nodine’s Smoked Chicken for a bold, smoky flavor.
  
  

• Scatter crispy Pancetta across the pizza for a savory, salty crunch.
  
  

Bake the Pizza:
Slide the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto your preheated pizza stone or a baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

Finish with Fresh Flavors & Truffle Honey:

• Sprinkle Parmesan Zest over the hot pizza for an extra layer of umami.
  
  

• Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and herbal freshness.
  
  

• Drizzle Truffleist Truffle Honey over the top for the perfect balance of sweet, earthy, and savory flavors.
  
  

Slice & Serve:
Let the pizza cool slightly, then slice it up and enjoy! Perfect for celebrating grads, dads, and every special occasion in between.

Enjoy this delightful mix of creamy, herby, and truffley goodness.
