BBQ Chicken Pizza
Ingredients
For the Pizza:
- 1 pre-made pizza crust or dough
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite variety)
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
Optional Toppings:
- Sliced jalapeños
- Pineapple chunks
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
Prepare the Dough:
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer to a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Assemble the Pizza:
Spread BBQ sauce evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
Top with cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, and red onion slices. Add any optional toppings if desired.
Bake:
Transfer the pizza to the oven or onto the hot pizza stone. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve:
Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Let it cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing.
Enjoy this flavorful and smoky BBQ chicken pizza! ✨
