Ingredients
  

  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • tsp salt
  • tsp black pepper (freshly cracked)
  • 1 chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
  • ½ tbsp cooking oil
  • ¼ cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 pizza dough
  • 4 oz Monterey jack cheese (shredded)
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce

Method
 

  1. Season Chicken: In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Season both sides of the chicken breast with the spices.
  2. Cook Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium. Add the cooking oil and swirl to coat the surface of the skillet. Add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through (internal temperature of 165ºF). Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board.
  3. Add BBQ Sauce to Chicken: Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes, then chop into small pieces. Add ¼ cup BBQ sauce to the chopped chicken, and stir to coat the chicken in the sauce.
  4. Add BBQ Sauce to Pizza: Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Place the prepared pizza dough or crust on a pizza pan, then spread about ½ cup BBQ sauce over the surface.

Notes

- Use shredded rotisserie chicken for a faster meal.
- Experiment with different cheeses like Gouda or cheddar for a twist.
- Bake at a higher temperature for a crispier crust.
