Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup pizza sauce

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, sliced

1/2 cup blueberries

1/2 cup kiwi, peeled and sliced

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

1 tablespoon balsamic glaze (optional for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and season them with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Sauté the chicken until cooked through and golden brown, about 8–10 minutes.

    Add Pizza Sauce: Pour the pizza sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet and stir to coat evenly. Allow it to simmer for about 2–3 minutes until warmed through.

      Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the chicken and sauce mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.

        Layer the Fruit: Once the cheese has melted, remove the skillet from the heat. Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and kiwi over the melted cheese, adding a colorful and fruity touch.

          Garnish: Sprinkle the chopped fresh basil over the fruits for an aromatic lift. For a gourmet touch, drizzle balsamic glaze over the entire dish.

            Serve: Use a spatula to serve the fruity delight pizza chicken onto plates, ensuring each serving includes chicken, sauce, cheese, and an array of fruits. Enjoy it warm, paired with a side salad or crusty bread.
