Doubled the recipe and still none left. Even picky grandchildren finished theirs. It was a fun Saturday night family meal.

Easy and quick to put together. I used refrigerated pizza dough instead of a ready made crust. Delicious!

Great and easy pizza! I marinated the chicken in BBQ sauce for 30 min before cooking. I like crunchy veggies on pizza so I omitted cooking and added them before baking. A final sweet touch to accent the BBQ is adding pineapple chucks to top the pizz off!

I used more barbecue sauce because I like my pizza saucy, and added olives. It was delicious.

This pizza turned out yummy! I made half of it for me (added pineapple & bacon) and the other half for my husband and added bacon, jalapenos, mushrooms, olives, tomatoes, etc. My hubbys only complaint was not to cook the jalapenos onto the pizza because it absorbs them and makes it too intense...(I didnt know cuz I don't eat them on pizza!! haha). Next time, I will leave the jalapenos on the side. Oh yeah, when I cooked the chicken, I also added basil.

My family loved this pizza. I made two. One with just chicken and cheese and another with the works. Both were awesome! We will be making this one again for sure.

This was delicious. On reading the recipe, I thought it might be a little bland but it was excellent. I used red peppers instead of green and also a whole wheat pizza base which made the pizza very filling. My family devoured it! The only little thing I might do differently next time is add some bacon. But this recipe "as is" is a definate winner!
