Pizza de Frango com Catupiry combines savory, creamy, and slightly tangy flavors. The chicken is typically seasoned, adding depth and umami, while the Catupiry cheese provides a rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture and mild, tangy taste. The pizza dough base offers a neutral foundation that allows the other ingredients to shine.
The key components are seasoned shredded chicken (often including herbs, garlic, and sometimes a touch of tomato sauce), creamy Catupiry cheese (a Brazilian processed cheese known for its spreadable consistency and mild, slightly tangy flavor), tomato sauce (usually lightly applied), and a pizza dough crust. Variations may include additions like corn, olives, or onions.

Chicken Preparation
Ensure the chicken is well-seasoned and not too dry. Using rotisserie chicken as a base is a great shortcut.
Catupiry Quality
Use authentic Catupiry cheese for the best flavor and texture. If unavailable, a good quality cream cheese can be a substitute, but the flavor will be slightly different.
Baking Time
Bake the pizza until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Avoid overbaking, as this can dry out the chicken and cheese.
Fresh Herbs
Adding fresh parsley or oregano after baking can enhance the flavor and presentation.
