Roasted Red Pepper and Chicken Sausage Pizza

I wanted to make pizzas tonight for dinner but I wanted something a little different. This turned out really good!!







1 pre baked pizza crust(I used GF Focaccia)

Sauce:
1 tsp olive oil
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and chopped(about 3/4 cup)
1/2 clove garlic minced
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
salt and pepper to taste


Toppings:
Roasted Red Pepper strips (homemade or jarred)
Chicken Sausage Links, sliced(Lots of options, Hillshire Farms, Aidells, Johnsonville,I used Open Nature Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Links)
Smoked Provolone Cheese(mozzarella is fine if you have no provolone)


Sauce:


Heat oil in a sauce pan over medium heat. Add peppers and garlic and saute for 3-5 minutes until tender.








Stir in broth and sour cream. bring to a boil , reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. 

Pour mixture into a blender and process until smooth(or use immersion blender if you have one)

Return to pot

Add in parmesan cheese and stir until melted. Add Red Pepper flakes, Salt and Pepper to taste.





Spread sauce over pizza crust. 









Arrange toppings as desired. Amounts are to your preference, just be sure to not overload it! As you can see, I had slices of provolone instead of shredded....I could have sworn I had a package of shredded LOL










Bake in a 350 oven for 10-15 until topping are heated and cheese is fully melted.
