Paper Paint and Pine: california pizza kitchen

We love Barbeque Chicken Pizza from California Pizza Kitchen--I mean, who doesn't? It is so good! We also love making homemade pizza and several years ago I decided to give Barbeque Chicken Pizza a try and it was a HUGE success. I now typically make one regular pizza and one Barbeque Chicken Pizza when we make them at home. You may remember my homemade pizza recipe I shared here before but if not here is the link for it.

It really is a super simple pizza to make and guaranteed to please your family and friends!

• • •I find the Hot Roll Mix by Pillsbury is one of the best ways to make pizza crust. I have a real from scratch recipe but haven't used it in a long time because of this mix being so much like it and so much easier.

You will need:

Hot Roll Mix or any pizza crust recipe

Barbeque sauce of your choice

Shredded or Cubed Chicken

Mozzarella Cheese

Red Onions, sauteed

Cilantro

• Gather your ingredients
• Chop onions and sautee in a little bit of olive oil until tender.
• Prepare pizza dough by following the directions on the Hot Roll Mix box.
• Knead dough and let rest for about five minutes

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread dough
• Top with the desired amount of barbeque sauce
• Add sauteed onions
• Add shredded chicken

• Top with mozzarella cheese and cilantro
• Bake at 400 degrees for about 20 to 30 minutes. Watch crust to prevent burning. The crust is baked through when the edge sounds hollow when you tap on it.
