    Season the chicken breasts with Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub.

  • 4

    Remove the chicken from the grill, let cool slightly, and cut into 3/4-inch-cubes.

    Make the Alfredo sauce. In a saucepan on the stovetop over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the cream and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, or until thickened. Whisk in the 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan, pepper, and nutmeg. If the mixture is too thin, let it simmer for a few minutes more.

  • 6

    On a rimless baking sheet, assemble the pizzas. Top each crust with Alfredo sauce. Divide the diced chicken and peppers between the two pizzas. Top each with 3/4 cup of mozzarella cheese and a teaspoon of dried basil. Sprinkle the tops with additional Parmesan cheese.
