BBQ Chicken Pizza
INGREDIENTS:
½ recipe homemade pizza dough or store-bought
10 ounces cooked grilled chicken, diced
½ cup + 2 tablespoon bbq sauce
1¼ cup smoked mozzarella cheese, shredded
¼ cup sliced red onion
? cup shredded mozzarella cheese
10-12 sliced pickled jalapeños
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 475ºF. Flatten the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Create a lip or rim by thickening the dough around the crust portion. This keeps the sauce from running over the sides. Transfer dough carefully to a parchment lined baking sheet. Let dough rest for 10-15 minutes.
2. Combine the diced chicken and ½ cup of barbecue sauce in a small bowl, set aside.
3. Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of bbq sauce on the pizza dough and spread the smoked mozzarella cheese on top. Top with the diced chicken, followed by the red onions, jalapeños, and the mozzarella cheese.
4. Allow the pizza to bake for 10-15 minutes. You can turn the broiler on for the last minute of cooking if you'd like your edges and cheese to be a little more brown. Top with cilantro before serving.
