BBQ Chicken Pizza
Serves: 8 Prep time: 25 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 T olive oil, divided
S&P
4 slices bacon chopped
1/2 small onion chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 t dried thyme
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup ketchup
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
1 t dried mustard
1 T molasses
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 store bought pizza dough
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and sliced thin
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 shallot sliced thin
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Drizzle your chicken with 1/2 T olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 20 minutes at 425. Meanwhile get started on your BBQ sauce.
In a medium saucepan heat remaining 1/2 T of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped bacon and cook until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper towel. Set aside.
Pour off all but 1 T of bacon fat. Add in your onions and allow to soften, about 5 minutes. Add in garlic and cook for an additional minute or two. Season with 
salt and pepper and thyme. Deglaze the pan with the vinegar being sure to scrap up all the good browned bits on the bottom.
Next add in your ketchup, tomato sauce, mustard, molasses, and Worcestershire sauce. Turn the sauce down and allow to simmer until your chicken is ready.
Once the chicken is done remove it from the oven and slice it thinly. Lay out your pizza dough and stretch it to fit a baking sheet. Spread a think layer of sauce leaving a one inch border around the dough. Arrange your chicken neatly around the pizza dough. Then arrange jalapeno (I only put this on half so you get a half spicy half wimpy pizza) and shallots evenly around the dough. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro. 
Top with plenty of cheese and bake at 425 for 17-19 minutes. Top with cooked bacon and more cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
