Steps:

• Melt 1 Tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallot, garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring until mixture is light brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add salt, pepper, wine and lemon juice. Cook until the mixture is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, quickly and thoroughly whisk in the remaining 4 Tablespoons of butter. May be prepared in advance.
• Combine garlic, soy sauce and olive oil in a small bowl. Place chicken breasts in a 1-quart ziploc bag. Pour in marinade ensuring that the chicken is well coated. Seal bag. Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Cook chicken on a hot grill (5 to 7 minutes on each side) or panini press heated to 420° F (3 to 4 minutes) or until chicken is fully cooked. Remove the cooked chicken to cool. Cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 325° F. Combine sliced potatoes with the remainder of the ingredients; coat thoroughly. Transfer the potato slices to a baking sheet lined with non-stick aluminum foil; spread in a single layer (do not overlap). Discard leftover marinade - do not pour it over the potatoes.
• Cook the potatoes in the preheated oven for approximately 40 to 45 minutes. Half way through, turn the potatoes to ensure even browning. Remove from oven when the potatoes begin to brown slightly. Using a steel spatula, remove the potatoes form the baking sheet. Place on paper towels at room temperature to drain off any excess oil. Do not refrigerate.
• Place pizza stone in the center of the oven and preheat to 450° F for one hour before cooking the pizza.
• Prepare and shape the dough on a piece of reusable parchment. Spread 2 Tablespoons of the Garlic-Shallot butter over the surface of the prepared pizza dough. Cover the butter with half of the mozzarella. Distribute half of the grilled garlic chicken evenly over the cheese.
• Sprinkle half of the rosemary and oregano over the chicken. Place the rosemary potatoes over the other toppings, spaced about 1-inch apart. Top with additional mozzarella cheese.
• Transfer the pizza to the oven; bake until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese at the center is bubbly, 10 to 11 minutes. When cooked, carefully remove the pizza from the oven. Sprinkle half of the remaining rosemary and half the parsley over the hot potato topping. Slice and serve. Repeat with remaining ingredients for a second pizza. Yield: 2 12-inch pizzas.
