Preheat your oven to 450Β°F (232Β°C).
Spray a baking sheet or pizza stone lightly with olive oil cooking spray.
Place the whole wheat pizza crust on the prepared baking sheet or pizza stone.
Spread the low fat BBQ sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Thinly slice the cooked chicken breast and distribute it evenly over the BBQ sauce.
Thinly slice the red onion and red bell pepper. Distribute the onions and bell peppers evenly over the chicken and sauce.
Sprinkle the low fat mozzarella cheese evenly atop the pizza.
Lightly sprinkle salt and black pepper over the entire pizza for additional seasoning.
Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the crust are crisply golden.

Before serving, sprinkle the fresh cilantro over the top for a burst of flavor.
Slice the pizza into 8 pieces and serve warm.
