Original BBQ Chicken Pizza

List of Ingredients




Original BBQ Chicken Pizza
Makes two 9-inch pizzas
Chicken pieces:
36 pieces boneless/skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/4 inch
cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons favorite BBQ sauce (we use a spicy-sweet sauce).

For the pizza:
1 basic pizza dough
Cornmeal, semolina or flour for handling
1/2 cup favorite BBQ sauce (we use a spicy-sweet sauce).
2 tablespoons shredded smoked Gouda cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup small red-onion, sliced into 1/8 inch pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

To make the BBQ Chicken:
In a large frying pan, cook the chicken in olive oil over
medium high heat until just cooked, 5 to 6 minutes. Do
not overcook. Set aside in the refrigerator until chilled
through. Once chilled, coat the chicken with two
tablespoons BBQ sauce; set aside in the refrigerator.

To make the pizza:
Place a pizza stone in the center of the oven and preheat
to 500 deg for once hour before cooking pizzas.

Use a large spoon to spread 1/4 cup BBQ sauce evenly
over the surface of the prepared dough within the rim.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon smoked Gouda cheese over the
sauce. Cover with 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella.

Distribute half the chicken pieces evenly over the cheese
(approximately 18 pieces). Place approximately 18 to 20
pieces of red onion over the surface. Sprinkle an
additional 1/4 cup mozzarella over the top of the pizza.

Transfer the pizza to the oven; bake until the crust is crisp
and golden and the cheese at the center is bubbly
(about 8 to 10 minutes). When the pizza is cooked, carefully
remove it from the oven; sprinkle 1 tablespoon cilantro
over the hot surface. Slice and serve.

Repeat with the remaining ingredients for a second pizza.
(The two pizzas may be prepared simultaneously if you are
careful in placing the pizzas at opposite corners of your
pizza stone.)
