BARBECUE CHICKEN PIZZA



Barbecue Chicken Pizza image

This simple recipe celebrates a 1980s classic invented by the American pizza genius Ed LaDou (whose fingerprints are also on Wolfgang Puck's famous smoked-salmon pizza). The pizza matches the flavors of chicken with barbecue sauce, red onion, two kinds of cheese and a little cilantro. Use homemade dough and barbecue sauce, cook it in the hottest setting of your oven, and the classic pie goes from good to great. Want to make the recipe vegetarian? Simply substitute mushrooms for the chicken and sauté until most of their moisture is evaporated.

Provided by Tejal Rao

Categories     pizza and calzones, main course

Time 30m

Yield 2 12-inch pizzas

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 ounces chicken breast or boneless, skinless thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
2 17-ounce balls pizza dough (see recipe)
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, roughly sliced
1/2 red onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 ounces Gouda, roughly grated
A few sprigs fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 500. Season the chicken with salt, and heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Toss the chicken into hot oil, and cook for about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until you no longer see any pink. Add 2 tablespoons of barbecue sauce, and stir well, then set aside off the heat.
  • Working on two separate pieces of parchment paper, use your hands to stretch the 2 balls of dough into 2 rough circles, about 12 inches in diameter. Slide each piece of parchment paper onto a baking tray, and finish assembling pizza there: Drizzle with remaining olive oil, spread with remaining barbecue sauce, then evenly divide the mozzarella all over. Top with chicken pieces, red onion and finally Gouda.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, or until dough is cooked through and edges of the onion and cheese are just starting to color. Once the pizza is slightly cooled, season with salt and pepper and scatter with cilantro.

BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA



BBQ chicken pizza image

Make a healthy, low-calorie pizza that adds up to three of your 5-a-day and give the takeaway a miss. The barbecue chicken lends a moreish smoky flavour

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Main course, Supper

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 13

250g wholemeal flour , plus a little for kneading if necessary
1 tsp instant yeast
¼ tsp salt
1 tbsp rapeseed oil , plus extra for greasing
pack of 3 peppers
1 large onion
1 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 tsp fennel seeds
2 tbsp barbecue sauce
2 tbsp tomato purée
1 large skinless chicken breast fillet (about 225g), diced
175g baby plum tomatoes , quartered
50g Applewood smoked cheese , grated

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the flour into a mixer with a dough hook, or a bowl. Add the yeast, salt, oil and 200ml warm water then mix well to a very soft dough. Knead in the food mixer for about 5 mins, but if making this by hand, tip onto a work surface and knead for about 10 mins. The dough is sticky, but try not to add too much extra flour. Leave in the bowl and cover with a tea towel while you halve and slice the peppers and onions. There is no need to prove the dough for a specific time, just let it sit while you make the topping.
  • For the topping: toss the peppers and onions with the oil and fennel seeds then roast for 15 mins. Meanwhile mix the barbecue sauce and tomato purée with 5 tbsp water.
  • Take the dough from the bowl and press into the base and up the sides of an oiled 25x35cm Swiss roll tin. Don't knead the dough first otherwise it will be too elastic and will keep shrinking back. Spread with two thirds of the barbecue sauce mix then add the remainder to the chicken and toss well to coat it.
  • Take the roasted pepper mixture from the oven and spread on top of the pizza. Scatter over the tomatoes then evenly spoon on the barbecue chicken. Scatter with the cheese and bake for 15 mins. Serve with a salad or healthy coleslaw.
