Ingredients

  • 1 ball of pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

  3. Carefully remove the hot pizza stone or baking sheet from the oven and transfer the rolled-out dough onto it.
  4. Spread barbecue sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Top with shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, and sliced red onion.
  6. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
