Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Gluten-Free Pizza Crust Mix
- 1.25 cups Warm Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Cooked Chicken Breast
- 0.5 cup Gluten-Free Barbecue Sauce
- 0.5 medium Red Onion
- 1.5 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 0.25 cup Fresh Cilantro
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet or pizza stone by lightly dusting with gluten-free flour or lining with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, add the gluten-free pizza crust mix. Follow the package instructions to combine with warm water, olive oil, and the egg. Mix until well incorporated and a dough forms.
Lightly dust a clean surface with gluten-free flour, then transfer the dough and gently knead for a few minutes until smooth.
Press the dough onto the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone, shaping it into your desired thickness and size for a pizza crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until it starts to set but is not browned.
While the crust is baking, shred the cooked chicken breast into small pieces. Slice the red onion thinly and chop the fresh cilantro roughly.
Remove the crust from the oven. Spread the gluten-free barbecue sauce evenly over the partially baked crust.
Distribute the shredded chicken and sliced red onions evenly over the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with a golden brown appearance.
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with the roughly chopped fresh cilantro before slicing into wedges and serving.
