Barbecue Chicken Pizza Night
15 August 2017
Here we are in the middle of the week, who even knows what day it is? Between work and everything else in our busy lives, we need to eat. This post is to us wishing we had a night out but instead we took a break, made pizza and had an evening to ourselves. This is our rendition of California Pizza Kitchens bbq chicken pizza (If you haven't tried it you should). We made some additions to this fancy pizza and I'm thinking so much more could have been done. Like adding mushrooms or ground beef with the chicken, I guess we will save that for another day. Here's to pizza night. Enjoy!
First off you're going to want to preheat your oven to whatever your pizza dough recipe calls for. This is normally around 400-425F. Next, I made sure to cook up one chicken breast and four slices of bacon. Try not to overcook the meat. We then cubed the bacon and shredded the chicken.
After that, you're going to want to pull out your favorite pizza dough and bbq sauce. Because this was a quick fix for us in the middle of the week we used a pre-made dough and the bbq sauce we already had in the fridge. The bbq sauce happened to be Sweet Baby Ray's Bbq Sauce, We think it's a keeper. Go ahead and roll out the dough onto a pizza stone or baking sheet and add a good heaping amount to cover the pizza dough.
As soon as all the toppings are loaded onto the pizza it's time to place it in the oven. I usually cook according to pizza doughs recipes directions, in this case, it was between 10-15 minutes. Although because we used a Pizza stone for this it was a little closer to 20 minutes. Totally worth the extra time. While everything is nicely cooking in the oven it was time to chop up some fresh cilantro to garnish the pizza. The cilantro without a doubt adds a freshness to the pizza you can't ignore. When the cheese on the pizza has melted and the crust is golden brown take the pizza out of the oven and sprinkle with cilantro before serving.
Once you have everything preheated, Sliced and ready to go, it's time to add your toppings. The order of this I always seem to change but I do like putting the heavier items on the pizza first, Like the meat. For toppings, we added chicken, maple bacon, a quarter of a large red onion (sliced), with mozzarella and parmesan (the fresher the better). I know a lot of people enjoy gouda with their bbq chicken but all we had was parmesan and mozzarella, Turned out just fine.
Hope you guys enjoy this pizza as much as we do. Let us know what you guys do for pizza night?
