Gluten Free BBQ Chicken Pizza

Now most of you know, I like to make all my recipes from scratch.  Every once in a while, I will cheat.  Cheat may not be the right word because for many people, you do not have time to do everything from scratch and having some prepared ingredients can help a ton.  For me, the inspiration for this Gluten Free BBQ Chicken Pizza was my new gluten free diet and I wanted to check out a pre-made gluten free pizza crust. It is also the perfect idea for a weeknight meal.

I have made many a pizza dough and it is not too hard to make – including a WHITE GARLIC MOZZARELLA PIZZA, INDIAN PANEER YELLOW CURRY PIZZA and MEXICAN CHIPOTLE PIZZA.  But buying a ready made crust meant that I had that pizza assembled and in the oven in about 2 minutes.  I had some leftover chicken from my GLUTEN FREE BBQ CHICKEN SANDWICH.  I used already minced garlic, a few slices of red onion and some chipotle gouda cheese.  How simple is that.  I really love a white pizza.  A white pizza uses garlic and olive oil as its base.  You could certainly make a béchamel sauce as well.

I find with a white pizza, the ingredients really shine through.  Since I was creating a BBQ pizza, it was the perfect base.  The BBQ sauce was also a store bought sauce.  So I mean it when I say this dinner came together quickly.  Slather the minced garlic over the pizza dough.  Next, drizzle the BBQ sauce over but do not overdo it.  Then start adding as much toppings as you like.  I feel a judicious use of the toppings is in order.  I added the cheese first and finished with the chicken and red onions so they would be visible after the cooking.  THAT’S IT.
