Ingredients

  • cornmeal for dusting
  • 1 pound pizza dough
  • 1 cup rotisserie chicken diced
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce divided
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/3 cup red onions thinly sliced
  • chopped cilantro optional, for garnish

Directions

  • Prepare a baking sheet and liberally sprinkle it with cornmeal.
  • Roll the pizza dough out relatively flat.
  • Transfer the rolled dough to the prepared baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chicken and 1/2 of the barbecue sauce.
  • Spread the remaining barbecue sauce directly onto the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top of the barbecue sauce.
  • Add the coated chicken on top of the cheese.
  • Scatter the red onions on the top of the pizza.
  • Put the pizza into the oven until the crust is fully baked and golden brown, about 10-12 minutes. For best results, rotate the pizza halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • Sprinkle the pizza with chopped cilantro and serve warm!
