Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°.
Melt 2 tablespoons Shedd's Spread Country Crock® Spread in large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook, turning once until lightly golden on both sides. Remove chicken from skillet; set aside. Add vegetables to skillet and cook until vegetables are tender. Return chicken and juices to skillet. Add Ragu® Pizza Quick Sauce; cover and cook until heated through and chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Turn chicken and vegetables into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish; cover with pizza crust. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons Spread and drizzle over crust; sprinkle with Italian seasoning and cheese.
Bake 15 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
*For a festive decorative twist, create a flag on top of the crust using sliced tomatoes, cooked spinach and sliced mozzarella cheese cut into star shapes with a star cookie cutter.
