Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza dough (try my homemade dough. The recipe link is below)or use store bought
  • 2 small cooked chicken breasts chopped into small pieces (rotisserie chicken works great for this!)
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce divided
  • 3 lices cooked bacon chopped
  • 2 ½ cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup pineapple tidbits
  • Thinly sliced red onion use as much or little as you like
  • chopped cilantro optional
  • black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 450° F. (If using a pizza stone place it in the oven now to preheat.) In a medium bowl, mix together the cooked chopped chicken and ¼ cup barbecue sauce. Set aside.
  2. Shape dough out in a 12 to 14-inch circle on a pizza pan or peel. Spread the remaining barbecue sauce evenly over dough. Top with 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, then top cheese with chicken, bacon, pineapple and red onion. Sprinkle remaining Mozzarella cheese over the top. Season with a little black pepper.
  3. (If using a pizza peel, now carefully transfer the pizza to the stone in the oven.)Bake pizza until crust is golden; around 10 to 14 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes or so before slicing and serving. Top with fresh chopped cilantro, if desired. Enjoy!
