📝 Preparation Steps
1
DOUGH: Prepare homemade pizza dough according to directions. For both homemade and store-bought dough, brush the shaped dough lightly with olive oil (prevents it from becoming soggy), sprinkle lightly with garlic salt (don’t forget the edges) and poke several times with a fork.
2
CHICKEN: Whisk together the chicken seasonings in a small bowl. While the chicken is still on the cutting board, pat it dry and sprinkle with seasonings, toss to evenly coat; set aside.
3
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy bottom skillet over medium-high heat until hot and rippling. Add chicken and cook through. Remove from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce.
4
ASSEMBLE: Evenly spread 1/3 cup BBQ sauce over the top of the uncooked dough. Top evenly with cooked chicken followed by cheeses and red onions.
