Honey Chipotle BBQ Chicken Pizza

September 09, 2018

Pizza is one of those foods that has a lot of potential. It’s just so darn easy to play around with to create something new. So, naturally, we wanted to go with something that’s a little Southern. This Honey Barbecue Chicken pizza recipe is simple to make. It’s a touch sweet, and makes for a smoky and delicious alternative to its tomato sauce based cousin!

Prep time: 15 min, cook time: 30 min, ready in: 45 min

INGREDIENTS

• 3 boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and cubed

• 1 cup Holy Chipotle BBQ Sauce

• 1 tablespoon honey

• 1 teaspoon molasses

• ⅓ cup brown sugar

• ½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

• 1 (12 inch) pre-baked pizza crust

• ½ cup smoked Gouda cheese, shredded

• ½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

• 1 cup thinly sliced red onion

• 1 – 1½ cup crispy bacon bits (or 4-5 long strips of bacon, crumbled)

Directions

1: First, cook bacon until semi-soft. Be sure not to overcook or it will end up burned in the oven. Set aside.

2: Preheat oven to 425˚ F (220 ˚ C). In a saucepan over medium high heat, combine chicken, barbeque sauce, honey, molasses, brown sugar and cilantro. Bring to a boil.

2: Spread chicken mixture evenly over pizza crust. Then top with cheese, onion, and bacon. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted.
