Ingredients

• 1 pack Gluten-free pizza crust
• 1 cup Cooked chicken breast
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free barbecue sauce
• 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Prepare the gluten-free pizza crust according to the package instructions, typically by prebaking for 5-7 minutes if not already cooked.

Step 3

While the crust is prebaking, slice the red onion into thin rings and roughly chop the fresh cilantro.

Step 4

In a bowl, mix the cooked chicken breast with 1/4 cup of the gluten-free barbecue sauce until evenly coated.

Step 5

Remove the pre-baked crust from the oven and brush it lightly with olive oil.

Step 6

Spread the remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border for the crust.

Step 7

Scatter half of the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce-covered crust.

Step 8

Evenly distribute the barbecue-coated chicken pieces over the cheese layer.

Step 9

Add the red onion slices on top of the chicken to provide a sweet crunch.

Step 10

Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top of the pizza.

Step 11

Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling with a light golden hue.

Step 12

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 13

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving and season with a little salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 14

Cut the pizza into 8 slices and serve warm.
