{ Ashley's BBQ PIzza & Pizza Dough }

Submitted by Chelsey
This is so yummy! I don't know where I got the pizza dough recipe but it is an easy and yummy one! I got the BBQ pizza recipe form a good friend named Ashley! I made the pizza Florence,  Italy style in a square pan since I didn't have a pizza stone and it turned out perfect!

Tips:  (You might know this but it was new info to me) Use left over chicken for this recipe or buy a cooked rotisserie chicken. If you don't have the time you could also buy a pizza crust too! If you make the dough roll it out on parchment paper and then put it on the pizza stone! The parchment paper makes it so the pizza wont fall a part while putting it in and out of the oven and less mess

* Preheat oven/ pizza stone to 500 (My pizza stone broke so I didn't  use a pizza stone, but if you do then it turns on even better. still preheat either way)

Pizza Dough

Ingredients
1  1/2 Cup Hot water
2 teaspoons salt
2 Tablespoons sugar
2  1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
3-4 cups flour ( I used 2 cups Wonder flour, 2 cups white flour)

Directions: Mix  water, salt sugar,  and yeast. Slowly add flour until right constancy.  Knead for dough for 8-10 minutes. Roll out on to parchment paper and add Toppings



BBQ PIZZA TOPPINGS

Ingredients:
Favorite BBQ  sauce (Sweet baby Rays!!)
1 medium red onion, chopped (I used half)
Olive oil
Mozzarella cheese, grated
Chicken, cooked & chopped
* I added fresh basil and tomatoes too


Directions:
Saute red onion in olive oil and a little bit of BBQ sauce, until onion is soft. (I added fresh basil & chopped tomatoes to the saute pan) Pull BBQ sauce over the pizza dough, red onions, chicken and then mozzarella cheese. Bake  pizza at 500 for    7-10 minutes. enjoy

BBQ chicken braid

submitted by Malorie

After making the dough and letting it rise, this was a very easy meal. Im sure just using rhodes dough would be just as good. This braid tasted JUST like BBQ chicken pizza, it was delicious. I added more chicken, a little less onion, and lots more cheese to it. I used Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce ( I think thats the name) which is my favorite.

If you make the dough, there is the recipe and a detailed description on how to make the braid at melskitchencafe.com

http://www.melskitchencafe.com/2010/03/bbq-chicken-braid.html


*Makes 2 large braids

1 recipe French Bread Rolls
2 cups shredded, cooked chicken
1 red onion, sliced into thin half moons
1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

After the french bread roll recipe has gone through the first rise, split the dough into two parts. Lightly cover one portion and set aside. Roll the other portion into about an 11X17-inch rectangle (I roll mine out directly on a silpat liner to make for easy transfer to the baking sheet and oven). Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut 1-inch wide strips in towards the center, starting on the long sides. There should be a solid strip about 3 inches wide down the center, with the cut strips forming a fringe down each side. Spread half of the barbecue sauce down the center strip. Top with the chicken, onions and cheese. Fold the side strips over filling, alternating strips from each side and pressing them into the dough on the opposite side, forming a braid. Pinch or twist to seal.

Place the braid on a lined baking sheet (or simply transfer the silpat liner to a baking sheet) and let rest for 15 minutes. While it is resting, follow the same steps above for the second portion of dough. Bake the first braid for 15-20 minutes (while the second braid is resting), until golden brown and bread is baked through. Remove from oven and bake the second braid.

Let the braids rest for 5 minutes. Using a serrated knife, cut braid into sections and serve warm.
