Ingredients
- 1 piece Pizza dough (pre-made or store-bought)
- 0.5 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie recommended)
- 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for topping)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up while the oven preheats.
Step 2
Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or your desired shape. Transfer the dough to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a pizza stone.
Step 3
Brush the rolled-out dough lightly with olive oil to create a golden crust.
Step 4
Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Step 5
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the BBQ sauce.
Step 6
Evenly distribute the shredded chicken and red onion slices on top of the cheese.
Step 7
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the chicken and onions.
Step 8
Carefully transfer the pizza (with the parchment paper, if applicable) to the hot pizza stone or leave it on the baking sheet if not using a stone.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
Step 10
Remove the pizza from the oven. If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro over the top for a burst of flavor.
Step 11
Allow the pizza to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your homemade BBQ Chicken Pizza!
