BBQ Chicken Pizza
SERVINGS: 2-3
INGREDIENTS
- 1 store-bought pizza dough (found in the refrigerated section of your grocery store)
- 1 cup Dad’s Own BBQ Sauce (plus extra for drizzling)
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded gouda cheese
- 1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup banana peppers, sliced
- Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped (for garnish)
- Olive oil (for brushing the crust)
PREP
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (or follow the package instructions on your pizza dough for the ideal temperature).
Prepare the Pizza Dough: Roll out the store-bought pizza dough on a floured surface until you reach your desired thickness. Transfer it to a lightly oiled or parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza stone.
Prepare the BBQ Chicken Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix 3/4 cup of Dad’s Own BBQ Sauce with the shredded or diced chicken until the chicken is fully coated in BBQ sauce.
COOK THE DOUGH
Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 5 minutes until you have a semi firm crust.
ASSEMBLE THE PIZZA
- Sauce and Chicken: Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and gouda cheeses evenly over the BBQ chicken mixture, covering the entire pizza.
- Add Red Onion: Cover the pizza with your desired amount of red onion
BAKE THE PIZZA
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
POST COOK
- Top with Cilantro and Banana Peppers: Scatter the thinly sliced red onion and banana peppers over the cheese layer for a pop of flavor and color.
TIPS
- For added smokiness, try grilling the pizza or cooking it on a pizza stone for a crispier crust.
- If you like extra heat, consider adding a few jalapeño slices along with the banana peppers!
