Ingredients
- 12 ounces pizza dough use my pizza dough recipe, or 12-16 ounces of storebought pizza dough works too
- ¼ cup cornmeal
- ¼ cup all purpose flour for rolling the dough
- 9 tablespoons BBQ sauce divided, use your favorite msauce!
- 1 cup cooked chicken chopped, rotisserie chicken works great
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- ½ medium red onion chopped small
- ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded, I prefer extra sharp
Instructions
- Make the pizza dough with my pizza dough recipe, or if using storebought dough allow the pizza dough to sit on the counter uncovered for at least thirty minutes so it stretches easier.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Add ¼ cup of cornmeal to the baking sheet and spread out over the pan with most of the cornmeal in the middle. You can also use a round pizza pan if you have one.
- Lightly flour a clean countertop. Gently stretch and knead the pizza dough. Add a sprinkle of flour as you stretch the dough if the dough becomes sticky. Add flour to the rolling pin and roll the pizza dough until it is about twelve inches across
- Move the dough to the prepared pan on top of the cornmeal. Curl the edge of the dough in just a little to give the pizza a thicker crust and a rounder shape.
- Add about 6 tablespoons BBQ sauce to the the center of the pizza dough. With the back of a large spoon, spread the sauce evenly over the pizza crust. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the BBQ sauce.
- Chop the chicken into bite sized pieces. In a medium sized bowl add the chicken and two tablespoons of BBQ sauce and stir well. Spread the chicken evenly across the mozzarella cheese on the pizza.
- In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, salt and garlic powder. With a silicone brush, brush the crust of the pizza with the olive oil.
- Top the BBQ chicken with the diced red onions. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese across the top of the pizza
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Then enjoy!
Notes
- If you are making this pizza on a rectangular pan like a baking sheet with a lip, you may need to stretch the dough to be more oval in shape rather then perfectly round.
