Ingredients
- 1 ball store-bought or homemade vegan pizza dough
- 300 grams vegan chicken strips
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 200 grams vegan mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
Step 2
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and vegan chicken strips. Cook for 5-7 minutes until they are golden and slightly crispy.
Step 3
Add half of the BBQ sauce to the skillet with the vegan chicken. Stir well to coat the strips evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.
Step 4
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the vegan pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or your desired shape and thickness.
Step 5
Transfer the rolled dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or a preheated pizza stone.
Step 6
Spread the remaining BBQ sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 7
Evenly distribute the cooked BBQ chicken strips over the sauce layer.
Step 8
Top with red onion slices, red bell pepper slices, and shredded vegan mozzarella cheese.
Step 9
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the entire pizza.
Step 10
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Step 11
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Step 12
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before slicing and serving.
