Equipment
- Rubber Spatula
- Oven Mitt
- Small Bowl
- Pot(s)
- Pizza Stone
Ingredients
Honey Barbecue Sauce
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- ⅔ cup water
- 1 cup barbecue sauce I used Sweet Baby Ray’s Brand
- 6 tbsp honey divided
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp chopped garlic
Pizza Assembly
- 1 boneless skinless chicken breast pounded to 1 inch thick
- 1 whole head garlic roasted
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter softened
- 1 Frozen Pizza Dough preferably Tiseo’s brand
- 8 oz block of fresh mozzarella cheese
- 1 tbsp honey
- One bunch of green onions only the green ends
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut the head off the top of the garlic bulb and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Roast for about 30-40 minutes until the garlic begins to bubble. Remove from oven and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the water and the cornstarch and mix together until dissolved.
- Combine cornstarch mixture in a medium pot with the rest of the honey barbecue sauce ingredients. Stir to combine. Cook on medium-high heat until sauce starts to bubble and thicken, stirring occasionally. Remove from burner.
- Divide the completed sauce in half. Reserve half for pizza sauce. Pour the other half in a plastic ziplock back with the chicken breast. Allow to marinade for an hour or two.
- Once chicken is done marinating, cook it by your desired method. I grilled it on a panini press until cooked through. You can grill it on a barbecue grill, bake it in the oven, or stir-fry it. I found that the tabletop grill was the fastest. When done cooking, cut the chicken breast into thin strips to lay across the pizza.
Assembling the Pizza
- Thaw pizza dough according to package instructions.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine unsalted, softened butter with 3-4 cloves of garlic from your roasted bulb. Mix together to make garlic butter.
- Roll out your pizza dough and place on an ungreased tray, rolling the edges up to create a thick crust.
- Use a rubber spatula to spread the garlic butter mixture over the entire pizza, including the dough and the crust.
- Drizzle the other half of the honey barbecue sauce on the pizza, spreading with a spatula to cover all of the dough. Layer mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce and then the chicken breast on top of the cheese.
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and cook for about 15 minutes, until the crust starts to brown and the cheese is melted.
- Once the pizza is removed from the oven, drizzle the extra tablespoon of honey over the pizza. Then add chopped green onions. Lastly, sprinkle with sesame seeds.
