The best kind of recipe really.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5927\" src=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Pizza-chicken-1-e1515095915200.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Chicken\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1684\">I mean, what’s not to love? Pizza, Chicken, Pasta? It’s practically the Comfort Food Trifecta!! And because there is pancetta (or bacon) in the recipe as well, there is something for everyone here.<\/p>\n<p>I first came across this recipe when we were cooking with <strong>Dinner, Changing the Game<\/strong> by Melissa Clark, for the Cook Book Club, back in the Spring. I had to make it because of the title alone. And the fact that it is basically a one skillet meal, this is something that can be thrown together on any weeknight. I just loved the idea of putting all those fabulous pizza flavours on top of seared chicken and letting them all cook together till an amazing gooey topping was formed.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of those recipes that doesn’t require anything out of the ordinary. You probably already have all the ingredients in your fridge and pantry. And yet it is not an ordinary meal by any means. Served with garlic bread and a Caesar Salad, and this would be a great dinner for when company is coming over. Especially since it really all comes together in about an hour.<\/p>\n<p>First you are going to saut\u00e9 up some pancetta (or bacon). Then chicken pieces are added to the pan. Sear them to a lovely brown and then remove them. In the same pan, garlic, anchovies (not absolutely necessary) capers and chili flakes are saut\u00e9ed up in the remaining oil. Add in some cherry tomatoes and basil and cook, breaking up the tomatoes to create a simple sauce. The chicken is returned to the skillet, and placed into a 400F oven to cook for 30 minutes. Then bocconcini get scattered over the chicken and the whole kit ‘n caboodle is placed under the broiler till the cheese is all bubbling.<\/p>\n<p>So, that’s the recipe. Now, Melissa suggests serving this with a side of green veggies or a salad and some crusty bread. But I couldn’t leave well enough alone. I mean, all that cheese on top of that chicken. Surely it isn’t a stretch to see a modified Chicken Parm here, right? So I thought, serve it over spaghetti. There are some amazing juices in the pan just begging to be poured over a grateful pasta. So this is how I am suggesting you serve it. Of course, a side salad and garlic bread would still be welcome additions, in just about anyone’s estimation.<\/p>\n<p>This is a perfect meal on these cold winter days, but works equally well once the weather warms up a little. It really isn’t that heavy. But it is packed with flavour. And you can never have too many chicken recipe options. Keep warm, and eat tasty!<\/p>\n<p>Love Jen<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5931 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Pizza-Chicken-5-e1515096083692.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Chicken\" width=\"380\" height=\"475\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5928 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Pizza-Chicken-2-e1515095954949.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Chicken\" width=\"380\" height=\"392\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5927 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Pizza-chicken-1-e1515095915200.jpg\" alt=\"Pizza Chicken\" width=\"380\" height=\"427\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-5933\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"5933\" data-servings=\"0\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-simple\">\n\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"93\" height=\"96\" src=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Pizza-Chicken-2-e1515095954949.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Pizza Chicken\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/thelemonapron.com\/wprm_print\/5933\" class=\"wprm-recipe-print\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" x=\"0px\" y=\"0px\" width=\"16px\" height=\"16px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><g ><path fill=\"#343434\" d=\"M19,5.09V1c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1H6C5.448,0,5,0.448,5,1v4.09C2.167,5.569,0,8.033,0,11v7c0,0.552,0.448,1,1,1h4v4c0,0.552,0.448,1,1,1h12c0.552,0,1-0.448,1-1v-4h4c0.552,0,1-0.448,1-1v-7C24,8.033,21.833,5.569,19,5.09z M7,2h10v3H7V2z M17,22H7v-9h10V22z M18,10c-0.552,0-1-0.448-1-1c0-0.552,0.448-1,1-1s1,0.448,1,1C19,9.552,18.552,10,18,10z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/span> Print<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name\">Pizza Chicken with Pancetta, Mozzarella and Spicy Tomatoes<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary\">\n\t\t<p>All the melting cheese, meats and tomatoes of a great pizza, in a chicken braise, and served over pasta.
