Barbeque Chicken Pizza!

Last night I had a pre-birthday dinner party for Dustin. I asked Dustin what he would like me to make for this meal and he requested barbeque chicken pizza. So I did a search on allrecipes, and found this delicious recipe!

Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half
  • 1/4 cup barbeque sauce, divided
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 (16 ounce) package pre-baked pizza crust
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Directions:
  1. Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the chicken breast in the skillet, and top with 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce. Cook 10 minutes, turn, and top with 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce. Continue cooking 10 minutes, until juices run clear. Cool slightly, and cut into chunks.
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  3. In a small bowl, mix the remaining barbeque sauce and marinara sauce. Spread evenly over the pizza crust. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Arrange cooked chicken chunks and red onion slices over the top.
  4. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from heat, sprinkle with cilantro, and let sit 10 minutes before slicing.
This turned out so yummy! I didn't change anything. I used the pillsbury pizza crusts because that's what I had in the fridge, but I think that next time I'll be brave and make my own pizza dough. I did double the recipe and made two pizzas so that there would be enough for everyone.

For dessert, I made the Dangerously Delicious Chocolate Cake again. I once again made the Buttercream Frosting, but for some reason this time it wasn't as good. It wasn't as sweet for some reason, although I swear that I made it the exact same as I have been making it. I don't know, maybe I spaced and forgot a cup of sugar or something. Oh well, it's still good, just a little more buttery tasting than last time.

Also I was so busy trying to get everything ready for company to come over, that I forgot to snap a picture of the pizza. Silly me.

Everyone loved everything!!! I feel so proud of myself. Sherice even had a second slice of cake, and she hates chocolate. That's saying something right?
