Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (230°C), or follow the instructions provided on your pizza crust package for the best results.
-
Prepare the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, toss the cooked, shredded chicken with the barbecue sauce until it is well-coated. Set this mixture aside for a moment.
-
Assemble the Pizza:
- On your prepared pizza crust, spread a thin layer of barbecue sauce as the base. This will add a flavorful kick right from the start.
- Next, sprinkle a bit of garlic salt evenly over the barbecue sauce to enhance the flavor profile.
-
Add Fresh Ingredients:
- Evenly distribute the diced roma tomatoes across the surface of the pizza. This will provide a juicy, fresh taste that complements the smoky barbecue sauce.
- Follow up by sprinkling the sliced red onions over the tomatoes. Their crispness will add a delightful crunch to each bite.
-
Layer the Chicken: Spread the barbecue-coated chicken evenly across the pizza, ensuring every slice gets a generous portion of flavor-packed chicken.
-
Top with Cheese: Finally, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the entire pizza. This will create that perfect melty topping we all love.
-
Bake the Pizza: Place your assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on it; you’ll know it’s done when the cheese is fully melted and bubbly, and the edges of the crust are golden brown.
-
Serve Hot: Once baked to perfection, remove the pizza from the oven, slice it into pieces, and serve hot. Enjoy this delightful dish with family and friends, or savor it as a satisfying meal for yourself!
