Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet. In a skillet over medium heat, warm up some olive oil, then cook the onion, red bell pepper, and mushrooms until they’re soft and tender, about 5 to 10 minutes. Toss in the diced tomatoes and cook everything together for another 2 to 3 minutes until heated through. In a large bowl, mix the sautéed veggies with the chicken, then stir in the barbecue sauce until everything is well coated.

Step 2
Spread your pizza crust out on the greased baking sheet, then spoon the barbecue chicken and veggie mixture evenly over the top. Sprinkle the cheese blend generously over everything. Pop the pizza in the oven and bake until the cheese is bubbly and melted, which should take around 13 to 18 minutes. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Why you’ll love it
This recipe combines the smoky flavors of barbecue with the ease of pizza, making it perfect for busy weeknights. It’s quick to prepare and uses simple ingredients that many already have on hand. The result is a tasty, satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.
How to serve
Serve with a fresh green salad or some crunchy coleslaw to add a refreshing contrast. A cold beverage, like iced tea or lemonade, pairs nicely with the smoky BBQ flavors and rounds out the meal.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to keep the crust crisp rather than using a microwave, which can make it soggy.
