I'm always experimenting with new pizza recipes, and this one is a new favorite. I like to make a big batch of chicken early in the week that I can use in a variety of ways to cut down on cooking time and streamline things without feeling like I'm eating the same thing every day. This week it was a big batch of BBQ chicken - I just quickly brown a bunch of chicken breasts in a pan, then add in some BBQ sauce, cover the pan and let it all simmer and cook for 15 minutes. You shred the chicken right in the pan and then can use it for salads, tacos, quinoa bowls, you name it - and DEFINITELY use it for this pizza.
The sauce on this pizza is, surprise, also BBQ sauce! From there I add both shredded and torn fresh mozzarella, fresh corn cut off the cob, and thinly sliced red onion. As always I use store bought pizza dough, just let it come to room temp for an hour before you want to bake your pizza. Crank your oven up to 500F or as high as it will go, oil a a rimmed baking sheet, and you're in business!
This recipe will make more chicken than you need for just this pizza. So either make a few of the pizzas or save the rest of the chicken to use later in the week. Also, If you don't want to make a batch of BBQ chicken and would rather use pre-cooked or rotisserie chicken, shred 1 chicken breast-worth of chicken and toss it with a few tablespoons of BBQ sauce.
Serves 2 for dinner, 4 as an appetizer.
