Light BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe

This BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe looks yummy. And, with Perdue Chicken on sale this week at a couple of local grocery stores to pair with those great Perdue Coupons I posted last week, I’m thinking this might make it onto my weekly menu pretty soon! I’m always looking for new and different recipes, especially healthy ones. This “skinny” pizza’s crust is made out of mashed cauliflower, cornmeal and eggs…how different! Can’t wait to give this a try, especially because this pizza only has about 160 calories a slice!

Enjoy!

Light BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:

1 head cauliflower
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 eggs
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
3/4 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated smoked Gouda
thinly sliced red onions
chopped broccoli
fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fat free ranch dressing to drizzle on top

Directions:

Chop the cauliflower into medium pieces. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the oil and heat until shiny. Place the cauliflower in the hot oil, stir to cover with oil, and place a lid on the skillet. Check skillet every few minutes to keep cauliflower from burning, but let it get a nice browned roasted outside. Continue to let cauliflower cook, covered, for about 10-15 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Let cool for a few minutes.
Preheat the oven to 450. In a blender or large food processor, place eggs, cornmeal, and seasoning. Place cauliflower in blender and puree until you have a semi-smooth, thick batter. Cover a pizza pan with parchment paper and pour batter into the center of the paper. Spread until you have about a 1/2 inch thick crust or thinner if desired.
Bake the crust for about 20 minutes, checking occasionally to keep from burning.
While crust is cooking, coat chicken with barbecue sauce. When the crust is cooked through and golden brown, remove and top with barbecue chicken, half the cheese, red onion, broccoli, and the rest of the cheese. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden. Top with cilantro, ranch, slice, and serve!
