Ingredients

  • 2 Naan flatbreads
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup shredded colby jack cheese
  • 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onions
  • 2 - 3 tbsp chopped cilantro

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
  • Add the shredded chicken and 2 tablespoons of BBQ sauce to a small bowl. Mix gently until the chicken is lightly coated with the sauce.
  • Place the naan flatbreads on a large baking sheet. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of BBQ sauce on each flatbread, leaving about a border around the edges.
  • Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheese on top of the BBQ sauce.
  • Top some of the BBQ-coated shredded chicken and sliced red onions on top of each pizza. Drizzle a little extra BBQ sauce on top of each pizza.
  • Bake the pizzas for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted and the crusts are golden brown. Sprinkle each pizza with chopped cilantro and serve.

Notes

  • If possible, opt for grating cheese yourself from a block of cheese for the best melt when baking.
  • Feel free to customize these pizzas with your favorite toppings! Bacon crumbles and hot honey make great additions.
  • Check on the pizzas right at the 10-minute mark to ensure that they do not get too charred.
  • If you prefer a crispier crust, bake the naan pizzas on their own, without any toppings, for 5 minutes, or until the edges start to get crispy. Let the crusts cool for a couple of minutes, then add the toppings.
