Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1 large White Onion
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 Thick-Cut Slices of Bacon
  • 1 Rotisserie Chicken
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce
  • 1/2 cup BBQ Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Butter
  • 1 ball Pizza Dough
  • 1 Large Ball of Mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup Sliced Mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup Spinach

Instruction

  • Start by caramelizing the onion. There aren't any shortcuts that you can take here. Caramelizing onions requires about 30 minutes to steady low heat. I will be totally honest and admit I burnt the first batch of onions this time around, everyone has a kitchen fail once in a while. Begin by slicing the onion into long half round pieces. You want to slice the onion as evenly as possible, so that the onion slices brown at the same rate. Heat the olive oil in a heavy bottomed pot over low heat, add the onions, and let simmer for 25-30 minutes until browned. Stir frequently.
  • While your onions are cooking, bake the bacon in an oven heated to 400 degrees. Undercook it just a bit since it will bake a second time on the pizza. I baked the bacon for about 10 minutes.
  • Then shred 1 1/2 cups of the rotisserie chicken. Mix the buffalo sauce and bbq sauce together. Add 1/2- 3/4 cup of the sauce to the chicken, and stir thoroughly. The sauce I used was very spicy, so start slow with the sauce, taste testing as you go.
  • Butter a baking sheet - this will prevent the dough from sticking while also helping to make the crust crisp up. Stretch the dough out on the baking sheet. Pour a thin layer of the Buffalo BBQ Sauce over the dough. I used a very thin layer of sauce, and it made for a spicy pizza, don't do overboard with the sauce. Add the chicken over the top. Slice the mozzarella and add the caramelized onions, mozzarella, spinach, and mushrooms to the pizza. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it over the top.
  • Bake the pizza in the oven at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes, until browned. I always broil pizza for the last minute to brown the cheese a bit.
  • Serve immediately. I slice the pizza with kitchen sheers - it is the easy way to cut through the crust and slice a pizza.
