Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Roll out the pizza dough and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush lightly with olive oil.

2. Par-bake the crust for 5–7 minutes until slightly puffed but not browned.

3. Spread cranberry sauce evenly over the crust. Top with mozzarella, chicken, brie, and red onion.

4. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the cheese is melty and the crust is golden.

5. Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh thyme or rosemary. Slice and serve warm.

6. Optional: drizzle with honey or balsamic glaze for an extra flavor kick.

Notes

Pre-baking the crust ensures it stays crisp under the cranberry sauce.

Use leftover Thanksgiving turkey as a swap for chicken for a holiday twist.
