BBQ Chicken Pizza

This recipe is quick, healthy, and makes a simple snack or light meal. The best part of making pizza is that you can add anything you want on it. My favorite is BBQ Chicken but feel free to spice it up with other sauces. Make one with traditional tomato or alfredo sauce. The only thing different is that this recipe uses Naan, a South Asian flat bread. Each bite will be light, crispy and full of your favorite flavors. Have fun and be creative while making your Naan pizza.

Servings: 1
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes


Ingredients:
1 naan bread (can be found at your local grocer's bakery)
3/4 cup cooked chicken (cubed)
1/3 chopped red onion
1/4 cup of asparagus tips
1 cup of Monterey Jack shredded cheese (use your favorite)
BBQ sauce (use your favorite)
extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
1) Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
2) Brush some extra virgin olive oil on the bottom side of the naan bread.
3) Place the bread on a baking sheet and brush on some of your favorite BBQ sauce. A thin layer to coat the bread is good, unless you want your pizza to be less crispy and more saucy.
4) Have fun and spread the chicken, asparagus tips, red onions on top of the bread and cover it with the shredded cheese.
5) Bake it for approximately 8 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
