Pizza Base

Method

Preparing the Pizza Base

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to ensure a crispy crust.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dough

    On a floured surface, stretch or roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Brush with Olive Oil

    Brush the surface of the pizza dough lightly with olive oil to help it crisp up in the oven.

Assembling the Pizza

  1. 4

    Prepare the Chicken

    If not already done, grill the chicken breast until fully cooked. Let it cool slightly before shredding or chopping into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 5

    Spread BBQ Sauce

    Evenly spread the BBQ sauce over the surface of the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  3. 6

    Add Chicken

    Distribute the grilled chicken pieces evenly over the BBQ sauce.

  4. 7

    Add Onions and Cheese

    Thinly slice the red onion and sprinkle it over the chicken. Top with mozzarella cheese, spreading it evenly to cover the toppings.

  5. 8

    Bake the Pizza

    Place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

Finishing Touches

  1. 9

    Garnish with Cilantro

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the top before slicing.

  2. 10

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the pizza into wedges and serve hot, enjoying the delicious BBQ flavor.
