Barbecue chicken pizza

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 14 minutes

Standing time: 10 minutes

Serves 6

Here's another easy pizza recipe from Jill Bower of Modesto.

Ingredients

9 ounces Foster Farms Roasted Breast Chunks

2/3 cup bottled barbecue sauce, or use barbecue sauce packet that comes with chicken

1 (16-ounce) baked pizza crust such as Boboli

1 cup shredded mozzarella

2 tablespoons real bacon pieces

¼ cup thinly sliced red onion

2 tablespoons shredded smoked Gouda cheese

1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Pour barbecue sauce into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in microwave for 30 seconds or until sauce is thawed. Spread 2 tablespoons of sauce on pizza crust; toss chicken chunks in the bowl with the remaining sauce. Spread mozzarella over the sauce on the pizza crust.

Distribute the sauced chicken chunks evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle bacon pieces over the chicken. Place pieces of red onion on the surface and top with Gouda cheese.

Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese at the center is bubbly. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the cilantro over the hot pizza. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting to serve.
