Bake the pizza for about 6-7 minutes, or until the cheese is nice and melted. Like so. I have a MAJOR thing for pizza. I live in the Chicago area, and pizza is a total THING here. I have at least a dozen very good pizza places within a 5 mile radius. We’re spoiled for choices! I’m known in my favorite pizza place as the “chili pepper guy”. Shocker, I know. I’m the guy who brings in his own seasonings to sprinkle over my pizza for extra heat. When they see me, they make it a point to bring out hot sauces from the cooks in the back for me to sample. I love it. I used to have to keep a small container of chili powder in Patty’s purse for such pizza outings, but now I have a Keygoes:chili keychain, I can carry it around anywhere myself. YES! The Chili Powders:
Habanero (up to 320K SHU) Bhut jolokia (up to 1 million SHU) Trinidad moruga scorpion (up to 2 million SHU) Carolina reaper (up to 2.2 million SHU)
Can there BE better choices? Dang! Like this particular recipe. BBQ Chicken Pizza. Oh yeah! We may have awesome pizza choices around here, but as a cook, I love prepping food at home, and pizza is definitely on the menu, and that’s why you’re here, isn’t it? You want to make pizza at home, too! So let’s talk about making BBQ Chicken Pizza. Chop it up, toss it with your blend of seasonings, then cook them down a few minutes in a hot oiled pan until they are cooked through. Add in about a quarter cup of your favorite bbq sauce – I used this great Homemade Honey-BBQ Sauce Recipe – and stir to evenly coat the chicken. Layer the chicken over the flatbread, then top it with the rest of your honey-bbq sauce. Next, top the pizza with layers of sliced tomato, melty mozzarella cheese, and sliced roasted jalapeno peppers. Here are the steps: Set the jalapeno pepper onto your stovetop burner and turn on the flame. Like so. After a few minutes, it will look like this: Once the pepper is cool enough to handle, gently rub away the blackened skin. You’ll end up with this:
Cooking Your BBQ Chicken Pizza
Now that the pizza is assembled, let’s cook it up! Heat your oven to 400 degrees F. Before you place the pizza into the oven, give it a few sprinkles from your Keygoes keychain. Let’s spice this baby up! Don’t forget to add a few more sprinkles of chili powder. I always do. What can I say? I’m a crazy chilihead! It’s how I roll.
Pro Tip for a Crispy Pizza Crust
Depending on the type of crust you’re using, I like to heat up a pizza stone in the oven for about 10 minutes before baking the pizza. It gets nice and hot. Just slide your pizza onto the stone and let it bake until the cheese is nice and melty. Great way to achieve a nice and crispy crust! I’m ready to dig in! SO GOOD!
