Chicken Bacon Apple Fig Pizza

with goat cheese, zucchini ribbons, sweet onions and a maple balsamic drizzle  … Inspired by ChinDeep … plus a collection of fig recipes

Or perhaps, since I “cheated” on the crust and used a tortilla in place of the pizza crust, we should call it a Tortizza?  Whatever you call it, it’s easy, delicious, and on the table in a jiffy.

I wanted to make the Bacon Fig Grilled Pizza that ChinDeep posted, but I didn’t have time to make up a crust and start up the grill and all that, so I just pulled out a tortilla, put it on my pizza stone and it made a marvelous super-thin-crust for a pizza. If you want a thicker crust, you can certainly use your own recipe for crust or even a store-bought crust or perhaps some Naan (flat bread) in place of the tortilla. The toppings would be delightful on just about any crust you can imagine.

We had some rotisserie chicken in the fridge, so I used some of that on the pizza. I can’t begin to tell you how delightful balsamic roasted figs are, especially when they’re paired with maple roasted apple slices, juicy chicken, salty bacon and creamy goat cheese. Your taste buds will be singing when you eat this. If you have several mouths to feed, plan on making a few of these Tortizzas because they’ll go fast.
