Ingredients

• 1 pre-made or homemade ball Pizza dough
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 cup BBQ sauce
• 1 medium-sized, cooked and shredded Chicken breast
• 0.5 medium, thinly sliced Red onion
• 1 cup, shredded Mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup, shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons, chopped Cilantro
• 1 tablespoon (for dusting) Cornmeal

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.

Step 2

If using store-bought pizza dough, let it rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before rolling out. Lightly flour a clean surface and roll the dough into a 12-inch circle.

Step 3

Sprinkle cornmeal on a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet to prevent sticking. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto it.

Step 4

Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.

Step 5

Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the dough, using the back of a spoon or a spatula.

Step 6

Top the pizza with cooked and shredded chicken, distributing it evenly across the sauce.

Step 7

Add thinly sliced red onions, followed by the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the pizza to the preheated oven by sliding it onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Step 9

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before garnishing with freshly chopped cilantro.

Step 10

Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious BBQ Chicken Pizza!
