BARBECUE CHICKEN PIZZA



Barbecue Chicken Pizza image

This simple recipe celebrates a 1980s classic invented by the American pizza genius Ed LaDou (whose fingerprints are also on Wolfgang Puck's famous smoked-salmon pizza). The pizza matches the flavors of chicken with barbecue sauce, red onion, two kinds of cheese and a little cilantro. Use homemade dough and barbecue sauce, cook it in the hottest setting of your oven, and the classic pie goes from good to great. Want to make the recipe vegetarian? Simply substitute mushrooms for the chicken and sauté until most of their moisture is evaporated.

Time 30m

Yield 2 12-inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 ounces chicken breast or boneless, skinless thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
2 17-ounce balls pizza dough (see recipe)
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, roughly sliced
1/2 red onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 ounces Gouda, roughly grated
A few sprigs fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 500. Season the chicken with salt, and heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Toss the chicken into hot oil, and cook for about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until you no longer see any pink. Add 2 tablespoons of barbecue sauce, and stir well, then set aside off the heat.
  • Working on two separate pieces of parchment paper, use your hands to stretch the 2 balls of dough into 2 rough circles, about 12 inches in diameter. Slide each piece of parchment paper onto a baking tray, and finish assembling pizza there: Drizzle with remaining olive oil, spread with remaining barbecue sauce, then evenly divide the mozzarella all over. Top with chicken pieces, red onion and finally Gouda.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or until dough is cooked through and edges of the onion and cheese are just starting to color. Once the pizza is slightly cooled, season with salt and pepper and scatter with cilantro.

CHICKEN BBQ PIZZA PIE



Chicken BBQ Pizza Pie image

This recipe utilizes two of the refrigerated Pillsbury pie crusts (the ones that come rolled into tubes-2 to a box) for a top and bottom crust instead of traditional crust.

Provided by Caryn Dalton

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 10 slices, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pillsbury pie crusts (from refrigerated section of your grocer)
1 chicken breast, cut into small cubes
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup barbecue sauce, to taste (or more, your favorite kind)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F according to pie crust instructions.
  • According to pie crust instructions, nuke each pie crust roll (by itself) in microwave on defrost or 30% power for 15-25 seconds OR let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • Spray round pizza pan with nonstick and unroll pie crust onto pan. Prick all over several times with a fork. Bake in center of oven for approximately 5 minutes or until pie crust is no longer moist and is starting get a light golden color. Do not overcook.
  • Meanwhile, chop small onion and cube (small cubes) one chicken breast (I use kitchen scissors to make chopping chicken quicker)and sauté together for about 5 minutes or until chicken is done and onions are starting to get clear.
  • Take pie crust out of oven, spread cheddar cheese on bottom pie crust, then spread chicken and onions on top of cheese, then spread mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken and onions.
  • Now, drizzle your favorite barbecue sauce back and forth over the entire pizza. Start with 1/2 cup and if it isn't mostly covered with that much, use more.
  • Unroll last pie crust, and place on top of the other pie crust and other ingredients. Press edges of top crust to bottom edge. It wont stick completely because you cooked the bottom crust a little already. Prick top crust with a fork. BROIL about 4 inches away from heat for about 5 minutes (keep checking because your oven may be different from mine) until crust starts to lose that moist look, then bake at 450°F in center of oven for another 4 minutes or until edges of crust start to get golden and top looks flaky and done.
  • Cut with pizza cutter and serve with a spatula. You eat this pizza with a fork.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. For a smokier flavor, use grilled or rotisserie chicken.
  • Make your own BBQ sauce: It's easy to make your own BBQ sauce using simple pantry ingredients like ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and spices. You can also use your favorite store-bought BBQ sauce.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your pizza the best flavor. If you can, use organic ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pizza: Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy. Add just enough toppings to cover the pizza without overloading it.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature: This will help the crust get crispy and the cheese to melt and bubble.

Conclusion:

Chicken BBQ pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. With a few simple tips, you can make a pizza that's sure to impress your family and friends. So fire up your oven and get baking!
