Basic Barbecue Chicken Pizza
Makes two 12-inch pizzas
2 whole skinless, boneless chicken breasts, sautéed in olive oil, or
grilled, cut into 1⁄4-inch wide strips or cubed
1 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup chopped red onion, blanched
1 1⁄2 cups shredded smoked mozzarella
In a large bowl, toss the cooked chicken with the barbecue sauce to coat. Divide
the chicken between the two pizza shells. Sprinkle 1⁄2 cup of the red
onion evenly over each pizza. Sprinkle an equal portion of the cheese on each
pizza. Bake.
Cook's Notes: A variation would be to paint a layer of barbecue sauce on the crust, sprinkle on the onion, layer on the chicken (coated with barbecue sauce) and add the cheese.
Also, blending provolone and smoked mozzarella or provolone and mozzarella
on an equal basis will add more flavor interest.
