BBQ Chicken Pizza

I’ve never been a huge fan of BBQ chicken pizza. I usually opt for a traditional red sauce pizza. I know several people that absolutely love BBQ chicken pizza so I figured I would try it out at home. The result was an amazing meal! It turned out really delicious.
To start I bought fresh pizza dough from whole foods. Then I rolled it out with some flour and put it on my pizza stone with a little cornmeal underneath so it doesn’t stick. Then I top with my homemade BBQ sauce (recipe below), rotisserie chicken (I bought some from Safeway then shredded it), sliced red onion, then top with freshly grated mozzarella. Bake at 450 degrees 15 – 18 minutes.

BBQ Sauce recipe (makes 3 cups)
6 slices of bacon (finely chopped)
1 onion chopped
¾ cup ketchup
¾ cup plain tomato sauce
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup cider vinegar
1 T Worcestershire
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper to taste

Put large pot over medium heat and add chopped bacon and crisp. Add onion and cook until soft. Stir in remaining ingredients and mix well. Simmer for 5 – 10 mins.
