Pizza lovers can embrace the seasonal spirit with the launch of a new Christmas pizza from Pizza Hut.

The limited-edition pizza includes rotisserie chicken, crispy bacon, and sage and onion stuffing, on a red wine gravy base.

According to a company statement, the pizza encapsulates “all the best elements of the traditional dinner without having to suffer a sprout”.

Amelia Riba, chief sales and brand officer, Pizza Hut UK & Europe said: “We’re thrilled to be offering this Christmas special to our customers and lucky for some, there’s no turkey in sight this year!

“Instead we have opted for delicious rotisserie chicken and bacon, with the stuffing and red wine gravy base adding the extra festive taste for ultimate satisfaction. We cannot wait for you to try it”, she said.

The pizza chain has also announced that it has added two Beyond Meat items to its menu “for a limited time”, in an effort to appeal to vegetarian and meat-eaters alike.

Available now from five select branches in London, Liverpool and Luton, the range includes Beyond Three-Meat Supreme, Beyond Italian Style Sausage Supreme, Beyond Beef Sizzler, Beyond Pork & Sweet Chilli and Beyond Italian Style Sausage Tear & Share Topper.

Regina Borda, managing director at Pizza Hut Europe said, “We are delighted to be the first pizza chain to bring Beyond Meat toppings to the UK.

“We are constantly challenging ourselves to bring new innovations to our customers, and the Beyond Meat Pizzas are a great option for those looking to try plant-based protein without sacrificing the iconic flavour and texture of our traditional pizzas,” she said.  

It’s not the first time Pizza Hut has experimented with the classic Italian dish.

In June, Pizza Hut Taiwan announced it was launching the world’s first ramen pizza, incorporating elements of the popular noodle dish and pizza.

This included a topping of thick ramen noodles, pork slices, bamboo shoots, cheese, white sesame, fresh chilli and a half-boiled egg.
