BBQ Chicken Pizza (minis)

As I mentioned in the Oven BBQ Chicken recipe, it is versatile. If the thought of eating the same thing the next night or week is not appealing, then be creative. This chicken is not only good by itself, but also paired with other items on a pizza (or even a casserole, salad, or sandwich).

BBQ Mini Pizza

For the basic mini pizza recipe this is all that is needed:

  • Cooked BBQ Chicken, shredded
  • 1-1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or cheddar and mozzarella cheese (try using the blocks of cheddar and fresh mozzarella)
  • 6-10 flat bread sandwich breads (Nature's Own) or pita bread, bagel halves, English muffins, and flour tortilla's (note: if using bagels or English muffins, spread a thin layer of butter on before adding the toppings).
Directions:

Turn the oven on broil and place the flat bread halves on a pizza pan (with holes preferrably). Sprinkle on the cheese and place chicken on top. Pour a spoon of extra sauce over each, and put under broiler for 1-2 minutes (until cheese is melted and bubbly).

It's that simple!

Now for add-ons. In the case of our family, we had left over black eyed peas. So, I sprinkled on some cheese, placed a tablespoon full of black eyed peas on top, and then the chicken. Cooked under broiler, and the kids loved it! Even my son who never eats the peas had a 2nd piece.

Other suggestions would be: sliced peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, parsley, spinach, feta cheese or even spread a layer of cream cheese on the bottom.

Overall, this is a great quick meal that everyone will enjoy.
