Ingredients
- 1 package Urban Slicer Pizza Dough Mix (your choice of variety)
- ¾ cup Rufus Teague Honey Sweet BBQ Sauce, divided
- 1 cup cooked, grilled chicken, chopped or shredded
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing the crust)
- Semolina or any flour (for stretching the dough)
Directions
Prepare the Dough
- Follow the instructions on your Urban Slicer Pizza Dough Mix to prepare and proof the dough.
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (or as hot as it will go) with a pizza stone or steel inside. If using a pizza oven, heat to 700°F.
Grill the Chicken
Season chicken with salt and pepper, grill until fully cooked, then chop or shred.
- Toss the grilled chicken in ¼ cup Rufus Teague Honey Sweet BBQ Sauce for extra flavor.
Stretch the Dough
Lightly flour your work surface (or use cornmeal).
- Stretch the pizza dough into a 12-inch round and transfer to a pizza peel or parchment paper.
Assemble the Pizza
Brush the crust with a light layer of olive oil for a crispy edge.
- Spread ½ cup Rufus Teague Honey Sweet BBQ Sauce evenly over the dough.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Add the BBQ chicken and scatter the thinly sliced red onion on top.
Bake
Transfer to the preheated oven or pizza oven.
- Bake for 6-8 minutes (high heat pizza oven) or 10-12 minutes (regular oven) until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbling.
Finish and Serve
- Sprinkle with fresh cilantro right after baking.
Let cool slightly, then slice and enjoy!
