Ingredients
- 1 package (or homemade dough for one pizza) Pizza dough
- 2 cups, shredded Cooked chicken breast
- 1.5 cups, shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Barbecue sauce
- 0.5 cup, thinly sliced Red onion
- 2 large Avocado
- 1 cup, quartered Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 1 large (juiced) Lime
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using store-bought pizza dough, roll it out onto a floured surface and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone.
Step 2
Spread the barbecue sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Step 3
Scatter the shredded chicken breast evenly over the barbecue sauce layer.
Step 4
Top the chicken with the shredded mozzarella cheese and distribute the thinly sliced red onion on top.
Step 5
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Step 6
While the pizza is baking, prepare the avocado salsa. In a medium bowl, dice the avocados and add the quartered cherry tomatoes, chopped cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Gently toss to combine and set aside.
Step 7
Remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
Step 8
Slice the pizza and serve each portion with a generous scoop of the fresh avocado salsa on top.
Step 9
Enjoy your Chicken Pizza with Avocado Salsa!
