Cooking steps

-
Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees.
-
Sprinkle 3 TBSP flour over a clean work surface. Remove pizza dough from packaging and place on floured surface. Shape each piece of dough into a ball. TIP: Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray or dust with flour to prevent sticking.
-
Evenly sprinkle dough balls with 2 TBSP flour. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Ingredient Quantities
Pizza Dough
2 units
Flour
½ cup

-
While dough rests, wash and dry produce.
-
Halve, peel, and dice onion into ½-inch pieces. Finely chop cilantro.
Ingredient Quantities
Cilantro
¼ ounce

-
Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer; season with salt and pepper. Cook, undisturbed, until browned on one side, 2-4 minutes. Stir and continue to cook until chicken is cooked through, 2-3 minutes more.
Ingredient Quantities
-
Salt
1 teaspoon (tsp)

-
Once dough has rested 20 minutes, line a baking sheet (two baking sheets for 4 servings) with parchment paper. Carefully press and stretch each dough ball into a rough oval shape and place on one side of prepared sheet (you'll have two dough ovals per baking sheet). TIP: If needed, use a rolling pin to help roll out dough.
-
Cover dough with a clean kitchen towel and let rest 15 minutes. (This will make stretching the dough into a larger shape even easier!)

-
Once dough has rested 15 minutes, use floured hands to press and stretch dough on baking sheet into larger oval shapes, about 10 inches long and 5-6 inches wide.
-
Spread each dough oval with one packet of BBQ sauce, leaving a 1-inch border (you’ll use the rest of the BBQ sauce later). Sprinkle with mozzarella, then top with as much chicken and onion as you like. Drizzle or brush edges of dough with olive oil.
