"Spice up dinner tonight with this festive pizza made with chicken, peppers, onion, cilantro and creamy Monterey jack cheese."


INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)


  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 large poblano or medium green bell peppers
  • 1 large red onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
  • 2 (12 inch) prebaked pizza crusts
  • 1 1/2 cups Ragu® Old World Style® Pasta Sauce
  • 3 cups shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil



DIRECTIONS


  1. Lightly coat chicken and onion with oil, then season, if desired, with salt and ground black pepper. Grill chicken, onion and peppers, turning once, 8 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked and vegetables are tender. Wrap peppers in aluminum foil; let stand 5 minutes, then remove skin and thinly slice. Thinly slice chicken; set aside.
  2. Grill top side of pizza crusts about 1 minute; remove from grill. Evenly spread pizzas with pasta sauce, then evenly top with chicken, vegetables and cheese. Grill pizzas, covered, until cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve, if desired, with additional heated sauce and diced avocado.

This recipe does look really tasty but I was wondering what makes it "festive"?
