Recipe of the Day: California-Style Barbecue Chicken Pizza
CALIFORNIA-STYLE BARBECUE CHICKEN PIZZA
3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1 green pepper, cut into thin strips
1/4 cup thin red onion slices
1 ready-to-use baked pizza crust (12-inch)
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook chicken and vegetables in large skillet sprayed with cooking spray on medium-high heat 5 minutes, or until chicken is done, stirring frequently.
Spread pizza crust with barbecue sauce; top with chicken mixture and cheese. Place crust directly on middle oven rack. Bake 15 to 18 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Makes 6 servings.
Shortcut: For a quick alternative to the cooked fresh chicken, use chopped chicken from a rotisserie chicken purchased at your local supermarket. Add to pizza along with the cooked vegetables and cheese before baking as directed.
