Homemade Barbecued Chicken Pizza
Craving a taste of summer to brighten up boring winter dinners? I have got the perfect recipe for you!
I have the secret for fast, delicious, homemade pizza. Forget making the dough from scratch. I’ve tried many times, and it was just never as good. Hop on over to a local pizza joint and buy pre-made pizza dough. I get mine from Papa Murphy’s. It comes ready to bake, all rolled out, and on its own baking sheet for $3 (for a large).
Barbecued Chicken Pizza
Serves 4
Olive oil, for baking sheet
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 pound store-bought frozen pizza dough, thawed
1/2 cooked chicken, (about 1 1/4 pounds), shredded (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup store-bought barbecue sauce
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 large zucchini, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly oil a large baking sheet; set aside.
2. On a lightly floured work surface, use a rolling pin and your hands to roll and stretch dough to a 15-by-10-inch oval (if dough becomes too elastic to work with, let rest a few minutes). Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
3. In a medium bowl, combine chicken and barbecue sauce. Leaving a 1-inch border, scatter chicken mixture evenly over dough; sprinkle with cheese, then zucchini and onion. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Bake until crust is golden and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Hi Ali,
Great recipe, it looks delicious. Great idea for using up some of the excess Zucchini that I have from my garden right now. Thanks for sharing with Full Plate Thursday and I look forward to seeing you soon!
Looks so delicious!
Mmmmm…a wonderful savory dish. Zucchini is one of my most favorite pizza toppings!
Thank you for always bringing so much talent, creativity and deliciousness to "A Little Birdie Told Me…" Tuesday!

Great idea to add zucchini. Thanks for linking this to Fat Camp Friday, see you next time!
Yum! I love the zuchinni on top. BBQ chicken pizza is the only kind my oldest daughter likes. We make pizza periodically and from scratch. I found a dough that is quick and really yummy. I can have the pizza ready to go into the oven in about 30 minutes if I keep moving. I either buy sauce, but often like to make it homemade too…my mom always did and it's just stuck with me.
