Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups BBQ chicken chunks cooked
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil plus more for brushing
  • 1/2 pound prepared pizza dough , at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup dark barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese grated
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese grated
  • 1 small onion thinly sliced or cubed
  • 1 small green bell pepper thinly sliced
  • jalapeno for topping (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken chunks into small pieces.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium high heat.
  • Add the chicken chunks and sauté until the edges begin to brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Position racks in the upper third and middle of the oven.
  • Place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet on the top rack and preheat the oven to 180 degrees C for at least 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, layout a sheet of parchment paper and brush with olive oil.
  • Divide dough into two equal parts and transfer it onto a dry surface.
  • Roll and shape the dough into a 9-inch triangle, stretching it with our hands as needed.
  • Lightly brush the dough with olive oil.
  • Spread about the 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce over each pizza.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese atop the sauce.
  • Top with cooked chicken chunks.
  • For a pleasantly crisp touch, spread the uncooked onions and green bell pepper over the chicken mixture. If you prefer onions that are completely cooked, sauté them all with the chicken.
  • Sprinkle Mozzarella cheese oregano and dried basil over them.
  • Top with jalapoens.
  • Bake the pizzas for about 15-18 minutes, until the crust(s) are golden and cheese melts and the topping is bubbling.
  • Remove from the oven, and cut into pieces.
  • Unbelieveably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza is ready to serve.
  • Garnish with snipped fresh basil, if desired.
  • Serve warm or hot!
