For a vegetarian option, omit the chicken and pepperoni and add more vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, or spinach.
Feel free to customize the sauce with a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat, or a splash of cream for extra richness.
If you don't have a cast iron skillet, a 9x13 inch baking dish will work perfectly.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.

    This recipe was a hit! My family devoured it. I added a layer of ricotta cheese for extra creaminess.
