Equipment
- 2 half sheet pans
- Parchment paper
- Kitchen scale
- medium size bowl
- Basting Brush
Ingredients
- 12 oz Cooked Chicken1 shredded or chopped into small pieces
- ½ c Barbecue Sauce plus some additional for drizzling over the top of the pizzas
- 4 Naan Flatbreads 8-inch
- 2 TBS Olive Oil
- 8 oz Mozzarella Cheese shredded
- 8 oz Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded
- ¼ Red Onion thinly sliced and broken apart
- 1 TBS Fresh Cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper, set one aside.
- Chop the chicken into small bite-sized pieces, and transfer them to a medium-sized bowl. Then, pour the barbecue sauce over and stir to combine, so all the chicken is well coated.
- Place two naan flatbreads on one of the prepared pans and brush both sides with olive oil.
- Combine the freshly shredded mozzarella and extra-sharp cheddar cheeses. Sprinkle two ounces of the blended cheeses over the top of each flatbread. Then, spoon half a cup of the chicken mixture over the cheese. Sprinkle two more ounces of the cheese mixture over the chicken and top with several pieces of sliced red onion. Drizzle a little barbecue sauce over the top.
- Then, bake in a 425°F oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling. Make the other two pizzas while the first two are baking, following the above step.
- Remove the first pan from the oven and bake the second pan. Sprinkle a little chopped cilantro over the pizza. Allow to cool for about five minutes, then cut into three or four pieces, and serve warm.
- Yield 4 pizzas
