Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 12-inch crust Pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
- 1 cup Low-fat mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
Roll out the pizza dough onto a pizza stone or baking sheet, lightly dusted with flour to prevent sticking.
Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
In a bowl, combine cooked chicken breast with half of the barbecue sauce, mixing well to coat the chicken evenly.
Spread the remaining half of the barbecue sauce evenly over the pizza dough.
Sprinkle low-fat mozzarella cheese over the barbecue sauce layer.
Distribute the barbecue-coated chicken pieces evenly across the pizza.
Scatter red onion and red bell pepper slices evenly over the chicken layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and the crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
Slice the pizza into 8 wedges and serve immediately.
