- While the pizza dough bakes, heat a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil (1 turn of the pan) in a large nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat.
- Add butter to the warm oil, then the chicken or turkey.
- Lightly brown the meat 3 to 4 minutes, then add the chopped red onion, garlic and grill seasoning and cook 5 minutes more.

- Bake pizza another 13 to 15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and crust is crisp.
- Remove pizza from oven, top with chopped parsley or arugula, cucumbers and hot peppers and serve.
