Roasted Garlic Chicken White Pizza Sauce
Pizza has got to be my all-time favorite food. You know when you ask that question, “What food could you not live without?” Pizza is my answer. Every time.
I especially love to make homemade pizza. Putting it together with my kids is always so much fun.
We are able to prep all the ingredients together as a family and decorate our own pizzas with all of our favorite toppings.
I love to make a garlic, parmesan, chicken pizza! It’s seriously the best.
This sauce is super easy to whip together, and in no time you have an incredible homemade sauce.
What Ingredients are in White Sauce Pizza
Here's what you'll need to get started:
- butter
- garlic
- all-purpose flour
- black pepper
- skim or 1% milk
- half & half
- fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- dried/ground thyme
- dried oregano
- dried parsley
- garlic salt
How do you make a Roasted Garlic Chicken White Sauce Pizza
Chicken & Garlic Directions:
You can cook your chicken and garlic in the oven at the same time. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Cut your chicken breasts in half, place on the baking sheet and sprinkle with garlic salt.
Rip off a large sheet of foil and fold into a square box so that it is raised off of the baking sheet enough that any chicken juices will not reach your garlic. Place garlic on the foil and bake at 375° until the chicken juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 165°.
Remove from the oven and chop the chicken into small bite sized strips. Peel the garlic and mince.
How to make Pizza the Crust
Pre-heat oven to 400°. Spray your pizza baking sheet with cooking spray.
Spread the Pillsbury pizza dough out to the desired thickness and cook for about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.
How to make the Sauce
While the pizza dough is cooking in the oven, add butter and roasted garlic to a medium sized sauce pan. Cook for about 2 minutes over medium heat.
Stir in your milk and half & half and whisk together. Reduce heat to medium-low. Sift flour over milk mixture while whisking together to prevent lumps. Add ground black pepper, ground thyme, dried oregano, ½ teaspoon dried parsley & garlic salt and whisk well.
Turn off heat and add Parmesan cheese. Stir together until all cheese is melted.
Putting this Roasted Garlic Chicken White Sauce Pizza all Together
- Spoon your sauce onto half baked pizza crust.

Final Baking Instructions
Place entire pizza back in the oven for an additional 5-6 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil for 1-3 minutes, or until the cheese and crust reach your desired doneness!
Serve immediately and enjoy!

HI, I made this last night and the flavors were absolutely delicious! I added mushrooms because it just screamed mushrooms to me. Only thing I'll do different next time is to make my own crust. This was the first time I used the pizza crust in the can. I missed that yummy yeast crust. Wonderful pizza, thank you!

You can find it in the dairy section. It comes in the same type of containers that you get heavy cream and milk in. It's not as heavy as cream... that's why its called half and half.
Nicole says

Made this pizza tonight; looked yummy, sounded yummy. Followed the directions exactly and when I went to eat it, all I could taste was flour. Then I realized the directions regarding the flour step were in the wrong order. The butter and flour should go together, then whisk in your milks. Otherwise the flour does not get cooked and all you taste is flour. Think the next time I make it with those changes it will be awesome! Thanks for the recipe!

This looks fab! I am allergic to tomatos so I'm always hunting for alternative pizza and pasta sauces. I will try this soon with steak and provolone cheese.
