A fast and easy pizza recipe using rotisserie chicken, BBQ sauce, and naan bread for a flavorful and satisfying meal perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Plain naan bread (mini-sized for individual pizzas or full-sized for sharing)
  • 1 to 1½ cups (150-225g) shredded rotisserie chicken (preferably dark meat)
  • ½ cup (120ml) smoky, tangy BBQ sauce (e.g., Stubbs or Sweet Baby Ray’s)
  • ¾ cup (85g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup (30g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onion (optional but recommended)
  • Olive oil (for brushing naan edges)
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley (for garnish)
  • Optional extras: jalapeño slices, pineapple chunks, smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Shred about 1 to 1½ cups (150-225g) of rotisserie chicken, preferably dark meat.
  3. In a mixing bowl, toss the shredded chicken with ½ cup (120ml) BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
  4. Place naan breads on a baking sheet and brush each with a thin layer of olive oil to help crisp the edges.
  5. Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over each naan.
  6. Sprinkle ¾ cup (85g) shredded mozzarella and ¼ cup (30g) sharp cheddar cheese evenly on top of the chicken.
  7. Scatter 2 tablespoons of thinly sliced red onion over the cheese.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-12 minutes until the cheese bubbles and edges turn golden brown. Watch closely to avoid burning.
  9. Remove from oven, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro or parsley, slice into wedges, and serve warm.

Notes

Keep an eye on the pizza after 8 minutes as ovens vary; 7-8 minutes may be enough for bubbly cheese without burning. Brush olive oil on naan edges to prevent sogginess and achieve a crispy crust. Customize with jalapeños or pineapple before baking for extra flavor. Reheat leftovers in a toaster or regular oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
