BBQ Chicken Pizza
BBQ Chicken Pizza is a bold and flavorful twist on traditional pizza, featuring tangy barbecue sauce, tender chicken, red onions, and melty cheese, all baked to crispy perfection.
Ingredients

- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce (plus more for drizzling)
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- to taste olive oil, for brushing crust
- as needed cornmeal or flour, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.

- Transfer the dough to a baking sheet or preheated pizza stone.
- Spread barbecue sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Top with shredded chicken, mozzarella, cheddar, and red onion slices.
- Brush the outer crust with olive oil for a golden finish.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
- Remove from oven, garnish with chopped cilantro, and drizzle with extra barbecue sauce if desired.
- Slice and serve warm.
