Crispy pizza with blue cheese, basil, red onion, and sweet BBQ chicken. Great for your next outside get-together.
# Ingredients You'll Need:
01 -
A bunch of fresh basil, chopped up
02 -
68 g blue cheese, crumbled
03 -
½ red onion, diced up small
04 -
One batch pizza dough shaped out for a 23 cm circle (store dough or homemade both work)
05 -
191 g barbecue sauce, split up
06 -
210 g chicken, shredded
# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 -
Once everything’s melted and bubbly, slice it up and pass it around while it’s still piping hot.
02 -
Set the grilled crust on a board. Spread the rest of the barbecue sauce on top, then pile on the chicken, chopped onions, blue cheese, and basil evenly over everything.
03 -
Flip the crust and let it cook on the other side too. Leave the lid down and check now and then so it browns up but doesn’t burn.
04 -
Gently place the pizza dough onto the hot grill. Shut the lid. Let it do its thing for 3 to 5 minutes, peeking so it doesn’t get too dark.
05 -
Lay your dough onto a floured 23 cm pizza pan. Pat and stretch it out so it fills the pan nice and even.
06 -
Combine half the barbecue sauce with your shredded chicken in a little bowl. Stir it around until the chicken’s coated, then set aside.
07 -
Crank up the outdoor grill to high, letting it get good and hot before you start.
# Extra Tips and Tricks:
01 -
Grills can run hotter or cooler, so keep an eye on things to keep from overcooking.
02 -
If you’ve got parchment or a pizza peel, use one to slide the dough to the grill—makes life way easier.
