Barbecue chicken pizza brings me back to my childhood years, when I was young and spry enough to down about 5-6 pieces of this glorious thing without batting an eye.

You guys know by now I am all about making healthy pizza’s so of course I had to re-create this childhood favorite. Lately I’ve been all about time saving, so this simple pre-made crust has been making my life a whole heck of a lot easier.

If you are a huge fan of BBQ chicken pizza like me, I know you will be hooked on this seriously EASY and healthy weeknight favorite.

I will save the recipe for how to make homemade cauliflower crust for another day. This recipe is all about time saving, healthy-goodness for busy moms like me.

I’m talking about the kind of crust you buy in the freezer section, except made of veggie goodness!

My absolute favorite frozen cauliflower crust brand, Caulipower, made with all wholesome ingredients. You guys know I am the queen of label checking when it comes to pre-packaged products. Caulipower’s ingredient list is so clean it will make any foodies head spin! You can check out their list of ingredients here.

I’ve posted about this crust before but I really love it. Throw on your favorite toppings, bake for 15 minutes and dinner will be good to go!

Here’s how to make this ridiculously easy weeknight treat. It’s so fun to make with kids too!

Serves: 4 people
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 25-30 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

1 pack of frozen cauliflower pizza crusts
1 pack of chicken thighs (cooked and chopped)
3/4 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 medium red onion
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Prepare the chicken ahead of time. In Instant pot, cook chicken thighs for 15 minutes on pressure cook setting (adding water at the bottom) Alternatively, you can use store-bought rotisserie chicken. Chop into 1/2 inch squares.

  2. When you’re ready to bake your pizza, set oven to 425.

  3. Spread about 1/2 of the bbq sauce on the pizza crusts.

  4. In a bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 of the bbq sauce with the chopped chicken.

  5. Layer the pizza in this order: first the bbq sauce, then the chicken/bbq mixture, then the cheese, the onions, then cilantro

  6. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a pizza stone), place the pizzas in the oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the crust begins to slightly brown.
