Ingredients

  • 1 store bought rotisserie chicken, skin removed and chopped into bite size pieces.
  • 1 store bought pizza dough ball I buy ready to bake from the deli area.
  • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped small
  • 1/2 cup marinara/pizza sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups BBQ sauce
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • shredded mozzarella
  • parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp. corn meal

Instructions

  • To start, let the dough ball sit out at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Sprinkle the cornmeal over the paper.
  • After you have removed the skin and chopped the chicken, add it to a large saucepan/pot.
    On medium heat, season with salt, pepper, 1/2 cup water, and 1 cup of BBQ sauce. Cook for 20 minutes.
    Stirring occasionally.
    Then set aside after 20 minutes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, lets get the dough ready.
  • Sprinkle some flour on a clean work surface and lay out the dough. Form it into a oblong shape and cut into 3 even pieces.
  • Form into 3 balls and flatten out into a disc shape. Then let them sit for 5 minutes to warm up and be pliable.
  • Now as you would make a pizza, roll out the dough with a rolling pin into a oval shape. Continue with the other 2 and set aside.
  • Mix the garlic and olive oil together and brush the dough with the oil. Leaving a 1/2 inch border all around.
    Repeat with the other 2.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the remaining 1/2 cup BBQ sauce and 1/2 cup marinara sauce.
  • Spread the desired amount of sauce on the dough. Leave a half a inch of sauce on around the edges.
  • Next we will scoop on some chicken, mozzarella, onions, parmesan cheese, and some oregano.
  • Roll the dough like a burrito. and move to the baking sheet.
    Make 2 slits on the top of the dough to let it vent. Repeat with the other 2.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let cool and cut into 3 pieces.
  • You can sprinkle on extra parmesan cheese if you like and dip into marinara.
  • ENJOY!
