My husband LOVES BBQ chicken pizza, and my kids LOVE to make pizza. Why not combine the two? Here are the ingredients we used:
2 cans crescent rolls
Cooked chicken breasts (I had some precooked breasts in the freezer that needed to be used)
Red onion
Your favorite BBQ sauce
Cheese - I used Cheddar and Mozzarella
You'll need a large pan. I love to use my Stone Bar Pan. You can tell how much I love that thing by how black it is. Black stones make me smile.
My kids are all ready with the personalize aprons a friend made them. They get so happy when they get to make dinner.
First, I helped by making all of the crescent rolls fit into the pan. Don't worry, if you have any left over they're good just as rolls.
My handy dandy helpers squished it all together at the seams.
The goal is to have one big heaping help of crescent roll dough filling up the pan.
Bake it at 375* until golden brown. Just sit and marvel at the glorious looking crust you just made. It's a necessary step.
I chopped up the chicken, sliced the onions, and shredded the cheese. I put them into individual bowls so it was easier to split between the two kids.
I poured a little BBQ sauce on the crust, gave each of them a spoon and they knew what to do....
....spread, spread, spread!
I normally try to leave a dry edge around to help hold the pieces easier, but I think they did a perfect job.
I let them choose between chicken and onions. They sprinkled their choice all over just like the pros.
Then they each got a bowl of cheese to add to the pizza.
Not a bad job for a 3 and 4 year old, huh?
Bake it in the oven just until the cheese is melted. Now I must note, we three like crunchy onions so we make it this way, however my husband does not. When he is home I do sauté up onions in a pan a little before adding them to the pizza since they do not cook in the oven long. Since he was gone, this pizza was amazing for us.
