Ingredients
  

Sauce

  • 1 large pre-made pizza crust
  • ¼ cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 teaspoons creamy peanut butter
  • 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips, semi-sweet
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

Topping

  • 1 ½ cups shredded chicken, rotisserie or Costco canned chicken work great
  • ½ cup bell pepper, chopped
  • ¼ cup sweet onion, chopped
  • cup olives, sliced
  • 3 Roma tomatoes, sliced
  • ½ cup Colby jack cheddar cheese, grated
  • cilantro, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°. In a microwave safe dish stir together all the sauce ingredients, except the crust.
  • Heat in a microwave for 30 seconds, then whisk till the chocolate is all melted. Heat a little longer if needed to melt more.
  • Spread the sauce evenly over the pre-made crust.
  • In a small mixing bowl toss together the chicken, onions, bell pepper and olives. Spread evenly over the sauce on the crust.
  • Spread the sliced tomatoes over the chicken topping. Sprinkle the cheese over the tomatoes.
  • Bake at 425° for 16-18 minutes. I place the pizza straight onto the rack so the bottom gets a crisp on it.
  • Slide onto a pizza stone or cutting board from the oven. Cut into slices, and garnish with cilantro.
