5 Reasons BBQ Chicken Pizza is My Go-To Dinner
1. When E says “What’s for dinner?” and I have no idea, I can throw together a pizza in 30 minutes.
2. Everyone in my family eats it.
3. Cheeeeeeeeese.
4. It’s easy to keep the ingredients on hand so I can make it any time I get a craving.
5. I never have to deal with leftovers.
Super Easy BBQ Chicken Pizza
1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 Pillsbury thin crust refrigerated pizza crust
2 cups shredded mozzarella (2% or fat free is ok, but not as delicious as the real stuff)
1/2 bottle Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Toss the chicken in a baking dish, top with some of the BBQ sauce. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray. Spread out the pizza crust evenly. Pop the crust in the oven for 5 minutes (you can put it in with the chicken). Once the crust is pre-baked, take it out and spread the rest of BBQ sauce over it. Top with the red onions, then the cheese. When the chicken is cooked, shred it up into bit sized pieces and add it to the pizza. Put the whole thing back in the oven for 8-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust starts to brown. Try to wait a couple minutes before you eat it, or you’ll burn your mouth.
If you or your kids aren’t fans of spicy stuff, substitute your favorite BBQ sauce for the Sweet Baby Ray’s. It’s not exactly HOT but it is tangy. And if you don’t like onions (Mom) just skip ’em.

Zomg! Sweet Baby Ray’s is the BEST BBQ sauce ever! And I am from Texas. I know my sauces!
Such an easy dinner. IF only my toddler would eat pizza. Ridicuous. I know.
I can’t remember who told me to use it but it is the ONLY kind I will buy anymore. It’s SO GOOD.
BBQ Chicken pizza is one of our favorites around here, too. I especially love it on the grill in the summer. SO quick and easy and delicious.
This looks delicious, I would like to pin it to pinterest, but I need you to sign some verification of original source documentation, a pint of blood, your first born and a non-disclosure agreement.
Do you ever use the dough the grocery shops carry near the produce/deli sections? It is like pillsbury but, dare I say, maybe healthier, and costs two dollars. Yup two dollars. Seriously, best ever. Also I too love BBQ pizza! We add a sprinkle of blue,Gorgonzola, or feta to it too (if we are lucky enough to have it in the house). Yum.
Thank you for the idea! We had it last night! Sweet Baby Rays is the BEST!
I had to come back just so we could talk about Sweet Baby Ray’s. I buy it in huge amounts at Costco because my love is THAT STRONG.
We had this tonight – so yummy! My hubby was a huge fan. Thank you, thank you!
