Does anyone have this recipe? My host last night made it but she said she is doing it from memory from a show years ago and would love to have the actual recipe.

Can anyone help?
 
I don't have it written down - but I'm pretty sure it's in the All The Best Cookbook...

Here is the one from Joyce's Fine Cooking - although sometimes, her's aren't exactly the same as the official PC recipes.

1 pouch (16 ounces) Pizza Crust & Roll Mix (including yeast packet)
1 1/4 cups very warm water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, pressed

Preheat oven to 425°F. In Classic Batter Bowl, combine pizza crust
mix and yeast packet. Add water and vegetable oil; stir until mixture
forms a ball. Turn dough out onto floured surface. With floured hands,
gently knead dough 8-10 times. Sprinkle cornmeal over Large Round

green peppers into 1-inch strips with Chef's Knife. Slice onion using
Ultimate Slice & Grate fitted with v-shaped blade; slice onion slices
in half. Heat Stir-Fry Skillet over medium-high heat; spray with vegetable
oil. Add peppers, onion, garlic using Garlic Press and seasoning mix;
stir-fry 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in salsa.

Arrange vegetable mixture over crust. Sprinkle chopped chicken over
vegetable mixture. Top with cheese.
