Instructions
To roast the garlic
  1. Peel away the outer layers of the garlic bulb skin, leaving the skins of the individual cloves intact. Using a knife, cut off 1/4 to a 1/2 inch of the top of cloves, exposing the individual cloves of garlic. Place the garlic heads in a baking pan (muffin pans work well for this purpose).
  2. Drizzle a couple teaspoons of olive oil over each head, using your fingers to make sure the garlic head is well coated. Cover with aluminum foil.
  3. Bake at 400°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves feel soft when pressed.
  4. Remove garlic gloves and smash with a fork.
  5. Spread roasted garlic over pizza dough. Do this to taste.
  6. Spread the pesto on the pizza.
  7. Add the sliced, cooked chicken.
  8. Sprinkle with mozzarella.
  9. Top with fresh grated Parmesan.
  10. Bake on pizza stone or baking pan at 500 degrees F for 8-12 minutes.
