Pizza Bianca with Chicken, Caramelized Onions and Fontina

Ingredients
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 large yellow onions, halved and very thinly sliced
1 tablespoon, plus 1 teaspoon, fresh thyme, divided
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 (12-inch) thin pizza crust
1 cup shredded Fontina cheese (4 ounces)
1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
Chopped chives
Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 450F.
2. Heat butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions begin to wilt, about 10 minutes. Add sugar, lower heat, and continue cooking until onions are soft and brown, about 15 minutes.
3. Place pizza crust on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with Fontina and top with chicken and onion mixture. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbling. Sprinkle remaining thyme and chives over pizza, and slice into wedges. Serves 4.

This was in the paper today and Sarah and I decided to try it tonight.
It got rave reviews around here. The chicken was just one chicken breast on the roasted chicken (several more meals coming from that chicken) and I used the homemade pizza dough recipe.

Chicken Alfredo Pizza

The credit for this recipe comes all from Terri Larsen. She served this to me while I was in Arizona for a visit. It was fantastic and we have been making it ever since. I guess I feel so good eating all of those vegetables.
I love her Alfredo Sauce recipe because it is so easy to make and easy to remember so I can always remember to pick up the ingredients.
ALFREDO SAUCE
1 cube butter
1 Cup cream
1 Cup grated Parmesan Cheese
In saucepan melt butter, add whipping cream, then cheese. Stir until smooth and thick. It is great. (Can be used on more than pizza!!!!)
The Pizza Dough for this pizza is out of this world - here is the recipe:
PIZZA DOUGH
3 Cups warm water
2 TBS yeast
6 tsp sugar
3 tsp salt
6 TBS oil
6 Cups flour
Mix the above ingredients and knead for 8 minutes. Let rise 35-40 minutes. Fit into pizza pans and let it rise slightly. Makes enough dough for 3 pizzas (it makes really thick crust so adjust according to your liking).
Now to assemble this pizza:
CHICKEN ALFREDO PIZZA
On top of pizza dough put the following:
Alfredo sauce
Spinach leaves
Chunks of Chicken
Sliced yellow squash
Sliced zucchini
Chopped artichokes
Chopped sun dried tomatoes
Diced red or yellow onions
Top with grated Monterey Jack Cheese
Bake at 450 degrees until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.
