While this pizza may seem to come from somewhere beyond the outer limits and certainly nowhere near the borders of Italy, this pizza recipe is not only good; it also inspires improvisation and creativity. Consider substituting the protein; instead of chicken you could use salmon steaks or even swordfish. As Martha Stewart says: “It’s a good thing.”
