Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush the tortillas lightly with olive oil on both sides and place them on baking sheets.
In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the barbecue sauce until evenly coated.
Spread a thin layer of additional barbecue sauce (if desired) on each tortilla to act as the pizza base sauce.
Top each tortilla with the shredded barbecue chicken, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese over the chicken, dividing it evenly among the tortillas.
Add thinly sliced red onion rings on top of the cheese layer.
Season the pizzas with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tortillas are crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before garnishing with chopped cilantro if desired.
Cut into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy!
