Spicy Chicken Pizza Recipe By Tasty
The majority of the flavour from this bbq chicken pizza comes from the BBQ sauce and it's a reeeeeal good BBQ sauce. It's our homemade healthy BBQ sauce. You could use your favourite store bought BBQ sauce, but it's worth making the effort to make your own, as you really will taste the difference.
All of which you probably have in your kitchen already! We sweetened ours with a little honey (although you could use maple syrup) and the great thing is, you can adjust the sweetness if you don't like a sweet BBQ sauce. You could even add a little chilli to it for something spicier.
Heart icon Healthy swap If you wanted to give a little nutritional boost to this BBQ Chicken Pizza, then you could make the BBQ sauce and then blend some cooked vegetables in to it. Roast some bell peppers, courgette (zucchini) and aubergine (eggplant) and once cooled, this can be blended in to the BBQ sauce. You could easily use half the cheese in this recipe to lighten it up a little. If you are doing that, then it is even more important to use a mature cheddar, as it has a stronger flavour.
Keto Barbecue Chicken Pizza
Whilst the BBQ sauce is the main flavour in this bbq chicken pizza, that doesn't mean that the chicken takes a back seat. Shredded chicken is layered on this pizza to make it pretty much the perfect pizza.
We used leftovers from our Slow Cooker Whole Chicken, however if you don't have any leftover chicken then you could just grill a chicken breast and shred it to add to the pizza. It's worth giving our whole slow cooker chicken a try though, as it is rotisserie style seasoned chicken that is all cooked in the slow cooker. Only 2 minutes of prep as you just rub with the seasoned oil and then put it in the slow cooker for 4 hours.
There are so many options when it comes to cheese on a pizza. We went with a simple mature cheddar and shredded mozzarella to add creaminess and flavour.
Low Carb Peri Peri Chicken Pizza
You could swap them for some goats cheese and parmesan. We like to use mature cheddar or another strong tasting cheese, as the stronger the flavour, the less you need to use on the pizza.
Pizza is always a good opportunity to get some extra vegetables in. They can then easily be hidden under the cheese. We used onions and shiitake mushrooms for this, but there are loads of other vegetables that would work. Courgette (zucchini), sweetcorn, bell peppers, jalapenos or even pineapple (controversial I know).
Go wild with your topping combinations and why not get the kids involved? They will love making patterns on the pizza with different toppings.
The Best Buffalo Chicken Pizza (high Protein Low Calorie)
Healthy is such a subjective word, however make your own pizza at home from scratch is a great opportunity to make some healthy swaps, and you can control exactly what goes on to it. We used a homemade wholewheat base and then our lighter and lower sugar BBQ sauce. It is protein packed with the shredded chicken, and we used much less pizza than you would get on a takeaway pizza. You could also load it with vegetables if you wanted to.
To freeze, let the pizza cool completely and wrap individual slices in cling film (Saran wrap). Put the slices in sealeable freezer bag, squeezing out as much air as possible. Freeze for up to 3 months.
To reheat, you can cook from frozen. Bake the pizza slices in the oven at 230°C/450°F/Gas 8, and cook until heated through.
Our Favorite Bbq Chicken Pizza
Pineapple on a pizza is such a controversial topic, but we are big fans. We love it on any pizza, but it is especially amazing on a BBQ chicken pizza. The sweetness just goes perfectly with the BBQ sauce.
Yes, if you wanted to make a quick and easy pizza base, then you could use a tortilla wrap instead of traditional pizza dough. It wouldn't hold all the toppings together as well, but it's a nice lighter option.
Heart icon Extra tips • If you don't have leftover shredded chicken, then you can grill a chicken breast and then shred it to go on the pizza. • You don't have to make your own BBQ sauce, you could use your favourite store bought one instead. • If you are making your own pizza, then you can make it more or less sweet by adjusting the honey. • Give this pizza a green veggie boost with some chopped spinach on the BBQ sauce.
