I ran across this recipe from Sunny Anderson and knew immediately my family would love it.  That and I had a sticky chicken in the crock pot and needed a way to use the meat, perfect.  This pizza was very quick to put together and with a store bought pizza crust couldn’t be easier.  I highly recommend the Pillsbury thin crust pizza dough.  The barbecue sauce is slightly sweet and tangy with earthly taste from the herbs and a crispy crunch from the crust, perfection.

Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 sweet onion, chopped, 1 jalapeno, chopped, 1 bell pepper, Salt and freshly ground black pepper, 2-3 cloves garlic, minced, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup yellow mustard, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 Sticky chicken or rotisserie chicken , skin discarded, meat removed and chopped, 2  Pillsbury Pizza Crust -Thin Crust, 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar, 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan, 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella

Set oven to 400 degrees.

To start chop all the veggies to a fine dice, I used a small green and red bell peppers, banana peppers, jalapeno, garlic and onion.

Then in a medium sauce pan add in a little olive oil and set over medium high heat.

Then add in all the chopped veggies

add a little salt and pepper, and let cook about ten minutes.

Meanwhile roll out your pizza dough and pre bake for 7-8 minutes.

Once the veggies are soft and translucent.

Addi n the paprika

thyme

and oregano.

Let that cook for a minute or two until nice and fragrant.

Then add in the ketchup

mustard

Worcestershire

brown sugar

and vinegar.  Set to high heat and stir constantly until bubbly.

Meanwhile pull the pre baked crust out of the oven and set aside.

Then set to a low simmer and cook for a few minutes.

Then add in the sticky chicken

and mix well.

Spread out the chicken mixture all over the crust leaving a 1 inch border.  Be sure to leave enough for the second pizza.

Add a layer of cheddar cheese.

Parmesan

and mozzarella.

Don’t be shy this is the best part.

Along the border of the crust rub a little olive oil.

Place in the oven to cook for anywhere from 8-12 minutes. And repeat with the second pizza dough and toppings.

Once the pizza is done.

and gorgeous.

Quickly slice

and enjoy!  Nom Nom….

Top with the Cheddar, Parmesan and mozzarella, in that order.  Rub a little olive oil around the outer edge of the crust, Put the topped pizza in the oven and bake until the mozzarella cheese is bubbly and the edges of the crust are golden-brown, anywhere from 8 to 12 minutes. Remove the pizza from the oven to a cutting board and allow to cool for a few minutes before cutting and serving.

  1. This sounds awesome. I wish I had had this recipe last week when I had all that left over chicken! I will save it for the next time!

  2. Must. Have. Pizza.

    That sounds so good, I want to drive over and raid your fridge for leftovers; though, with that recipe, I doubt there are many leftovers!

    I keep meaning to ask you if your measuring spoon is one of those adjustable ones? I’ve been contemplating buying one but can’t make up my mind!
