BBQ Chicken Pizza


1 pizza crust (homemade or Boboli)
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 1/3 c barbecue sauce, divided
6 oz Provolone cheese, grated
6 oz Gouda cheese, grated
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 c chopped fresh cilantro

In large Ziploc bag, combine chicken and 2/3 cup of the BBQ sauce. Marinate in fridge for 4 hours or overnight.

To cook, place chicken and marinade in small baking dish and bake for 30 minutes at 325 degrees*. Let chicken cool, the slice into thin pieces.

Sprinkle half of the grated cheeses over the crust. Spoon 2/3 c BBQ sauce over cheese; cover with chicken and onion. Sprinkle on remaining cheese. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes at 450 degrees. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve. Makes 1, 12" pizza.

*When I made this, it took way longer than 30 minutes for the chicken to cook all the way through.  I think next time I'll up the temp to 350 degrees.

I stumbled upon this recipe on a blog called "Solid Gold Cooking."
