ingredients
- 3 boneless chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
- 1⁄2 - 1 cup Italian salad dressing
- 1⁄4 teaspoon california garlic salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup Open Pit Barbecue Sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon molasses
- 1⁄3 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cayenne pepper (Depends on your taste, opt)
- 1 large onion, Sliced into strips
- 1 green pepper, Sliced into strips
- 1⁄4 cup margarine or 1/4 cup olive oil, for sauteing
- 1⁄2 - 1 cup ranch dressing
- 1 (12 inch) pre-baked prepared pizza crust
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- 1 1⁄2 cups Italian cheese blend, shredded
directions
- Sprinkle seasonings on chicken breast – then dredge them in Italian salad dressing.
- Bake for 45 minutes – 1 hour at 350°. This seasons the chicken nicely and gives it a wonderful flavor. When the chicken is done set it aside to cool – then cube it.
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- In a saucepan over medium high heat, combine barbecue sauce, honey, molasses, brown sugar, cayenne pepper (if desired) and cubed chicken. Bring to a boil.
- Sauté onions and green peppers; set aside.
- Spread ranch dressing over pizza crust. Place slices of provolone cheese over ranch dressing. Spread chicken mixture evenly on top of cheese.
- Top with sautéed onions/green pepper mix, then sprinkle with shredded Italian cheese blend.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
- Option: try drizzling extra ranch dressing over the chicken – then top with cheese.
- NOTE: If the chicken barbecue mixture is soupy – use a slotted type spoon to scoop it out and place it on the pizza – you don’t want it to soupy. I also strain my onion and pepper mixture.

I didnt know whether to give this 4 or 5 stars only because I made a change with the cheeses. I had used mozzarella and gouda, about 3 to 4 cups total. I combined the two and put on top. Also I didnt add any green peppers. The chicken turned out so moist and delicious, I had cooked it in my grill pan instead of the oven. This was an amazing pizza, really surprised me when my friend said "wow". The sauce mixture turned out really yummy too with the honey and molasses in the BBQ sauce. Thanks for sharing your recipe KimmieOH it will definitely be made again.
