Description

Grilled chicken, sweet peppers, and onions smothered in melted cheeses and smokey barbecue sauce on a chewy crust. This pizza is easy, simple, and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Hot Water
  • ¼ cups Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Dry Instant Yeast
  • 2-½ teaspoons Salt
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 7 whole Chicken Tenders
  • 5 dashes Mesquite Grilling Seasoning
  • 2-½ cups Grated Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 whole Green Pepper, Diced
  • 1 whole Red Pepper, Diced
  • 1 whole Small Red Or White Onion, Diced
  • 2 cups Grated Cheddar Cheese
  • 2 dashes Salt
  • 1 cup Smoky Barbecue Sauce

Preparation

For pizza dough:

In a mixing bowl with a dough hook attachment, combine hot water, oil, and sugar.

Add yeast, and allow to bubble up. Add salt, then flour. Add the flour slowly, mixing as you add it incrementally with the machine on low.

You want a dough that is not stiff, but doesn’t stick to the side of the bowl. 2 cups of flour is an estimated measurement.

Allow the machine to knead the dough on a low setting for ten minutes. Then turn out into an oiled bowl.

Cover with a light-weight cloth, and allow to double in size, then punch back. Repeat this twice.

Roll out dough into a half-sheet pan or large pizza pan. Allow dough to rise to about doubled in size. Once it’s risen, bake crust at 350 for 10 minutes, or until just beginning to brown at edges. Cool.

Season thawed chicken tenders with mesquite seasoning. Grill chicken till thoroughly cooked. Slice into bite-size pieces.

For pizza assembly, spread 1/3 of the total amount of cheese onto crust. Then sprinkle on peppers, onions, and chicken. Add remaining cheese, and salt.

Drizzle on any smokey barbecue sauce of your choice. I make my own, the recipe for which you can see using the related link above.

Bake in 400 degree oven for 12-15 minutes.

Ooooh delicious! my whole family absolutely loved it! I did leave off the onion and peppers though, as none of us like them on BBQ chicken pizza. Absolutely delicious…why order out when you can whip this lovely up in just a few minutes?

This pizza is not a 5. It is a 10!!!!!
I love this recipe, I gave it to everyone I know. I use Hunt’s Hickory Honey BBQ sauce and I added 1/2 cup of cheddar to the dough before turning on my bread machine. I will make this recipe forever.
Thanks Anna G!
