Crockpot Chicken Pizza Recipe
This is a relatively quick crockpot recipe and the chicken pizza is very nice with garlic bread. It is difficult to make a pizza in the crockpot so this recipe is more like a chicken pizza topping without the pizza crust, which you can serve over rice, pasta or with potatoes if you do not want to use toast.
If you love the flavor of pizza but you want to make easy crockpot recipes, this is a very nice chicken crockpot recipe to try. You can use other vegetables if you like, in addition to the onion and bell pepper, to personalize this crockpot chicken pizza recipe and make it exactly the way you like it. Serve it piping hot from the slow cooker for the best results, and maybe serve a side salad and something to dip the pizza in or spread over it, like sour cream or blue cheese dressing.
The whole point of this chicken pizza recipe in the crockpot is to blend the flavors of the chicken and the other ingredients. Everyone loves at least one type of pizza and chicken is a popular ingredient. Using bread instead of a pizza crust means you can make the whole pizza topping in the slow cooker and simply spoon it over the toast when it is ready. Alternatively, you could use a readymade pizza crust and bake it in the oven for a few minutes afterwards. If you only want to use the slow cooker (and the toaster!), use toasted bread for a tasty alternative to the pizza crust.
