This is a great recipe to use up leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken, which is transformed into a pulled-pork style bbq chicken for the pizza.
BBQ Chicken Pizza (Serves 2 - 4)
Ingredients:
Prepared Raw Pizza Dough (you can be awesome and make your own, or you can be lazy like me and buy it in the frozen section at the grocery store)
Olive Oil
Garlic Salt or Garlic Powder
1 - 2 tablespoons BBQ Sauce
1/4 - 1/2 Bell Pepper, sliced into 1/4" thick rings
3 - 4 Mushrooms, sliced 1/4" thick
1/4 - 1/2 Onion, thinly sliced (preferably red onion)
3/4 - 1 cup BBQ Chicken (my recipe)
Mozzarella to taste (approximately 2 cups of shredded mozzarella)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400F.
Roll out your pizza dough and brush the top with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder or garlic salt over the pizza dough, especially on the crust. Spread a thin layer of BBQ sauce onto the pizza dough. Sprinkle with mozzarella, top with veggies and chicken, and sprinkle on a bit more mozzarella (and even add some parmesan if you'd like!).
Bake pizza until the crust is golden brown and cheese is gooey. Remove pizza from oven and let rest on the pizza stone for 10 minutes if you can stand to wait that long to eat it! Cut pizza into slices and enjoy!

BBQ/Buffalo/Taco Chicken
BBQ/Buffalo/Taco Chicken
Ingredients:
1 cup rotisserie or leftover cooked chicken, chopped or torn into chunks
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 onion, minced
1/4 cup chicken stock or broth
BBQ - 1/3 - 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
Buffalo - 2 tablespoons (or more) Buffalo sauce depending on your flavor preference
Taco - 2 teaspoons taco seasonings and 1/4 cup tablespoons taco sauce
Directions:
Heat a small saute pan over medium-high heat, melt butter, and add onion. (Note: if you are making taco chicken add the taco seasoning now) Saute onion for 2 - 3 minutes or until translucent, add chicken and stir to coat evenly with butter. Turn heat down to simmer and add the broth or stock, taking caution to avoid the steam. Simmer for 5 - 10 minutes, or until most of the broth has evaporated and the chicken is falling apart into shreds. Add more broth and/or use forks to shred the chicken as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Add BBQ or Buffalo or Taco Sauce and stir to combine.
Note: this is great for many things including Chicken Pizza, Chicken Sandwiches/Wraps, Chicken Mac n' Cheese, and of course Tacos, Burritos, Quesadillas, Enchiladas (though I would use enchilada sauce instead of taco sauce)... just use your imagination!
