Instructions
Prepare Caesar Dressing
In a mixing bowl combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, chopped cilantro, a pinch of kosher salt and pepper. Stir well, then add 1 tablespoon milk to reach a thick but spreadable consistency.
Time: PT10M
Cube and Season Chicken
Trim the chicken breast, then cut into bite‑size cubes (about ½‑inch). Toss with avocado oil, a pinch of kosher salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon sriracha.
Time: PT5M
Stir‑Fry Chicken
Heat the skillet over medium‑high heat until smoking hot. Add the seasoned chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4‑5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: Medium‑high
Prepare Bacon
In the same skillet, cook the bacon slices until crisp. Remove, drain on paper towels, and chop into small pieces.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: Medium
Roll Out Pizza Dough
Lightly flour a clean work surface. Place the store‑bought pizza dough sheet on it and gently stretch/roll to a semi‑rectangular shape about 12×8 inches.
Time: PT5M
Layer Fillings
Lay the dough flat. Place the provolone slices (halved) on the lower third, followed by the cooked chicken pieces, chopped bacon, a generous drizzle of the Caesar dressing, grated Parmesan, and a handful of shredded mozzarella.
Time: PT7M
Roll and Seal
Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly around the fillings, like a burrito. Pinch the seam and edges to seal. Place seam‑side down on a parchment‑lined baking sheet.
Time: PT5M
Egg Wash and Top Cheese
Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the entire surface of the roll with the egg wash, then sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella on top.
Time: PT2M
Bake
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the chicken bake for 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
Time: PT15M
Temperature: 400°F
Serve
Transfer the bake to a cutting board, slice diagonally, and serve warm. Optional: drizzle extra Caesar dressing or a squeeze of fresh lemon.
Time: PT1M
