Description
A simple recipe for making a flavorful BBQ chicken pizza on the grill during the summer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made pizza dough (about 12 inches)
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken breast
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
- Stretch or roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness.
- Lightly brush one side of the dough with olive oil.
- Place the dough, oiled side down, directly on the grill grates. Grill for 2 to 4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and grill marks appear.
- Carefully flip the dough using a large spatula.
- Quickly spread the BBQ sauce over the cooked side of the dough.
- Top evenly with shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese.
- Place the sliced red onion on top of the cheese.
- Close the grill lid and cook for another 5 to 8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is cooked through.
- Remove the pizza from the grill. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro before slicing and serving.
Notes
- You can substitute store-bought cooked chicken with rotisserie chicken.
- If you prefer a crispier crust, you can partially bake the dough in an oven before grilling.
- Use your favorite style of BBQ sauce for the best flavor.
