- 1 chicken breast
- 2 tsp taco seasoning or Southwest spice blend
- Pinch salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 premade pizza crust
- 1 can chipotles in adobo sauce
- 1 can Pizza Sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup mini bocconcini balls, sliced
- 1/2 red pepper, diced
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 1/2 cup Corn
- 1/3 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- Red chili flakes, for garnish
Preheat BBQ to high heat (500 F). Cut raw chicken breast in half, then coat each piece in taco seasoning, olive oil and a bit of salt, rubbing all over chicken well. Grill for 10-15 min, flipping once. Remove from heat once cooked and slice up once cooled. Turn BBQ to med-low heat (400 F).
Meanwhile, prepare pizza toppings. Mix 1 tbsp adobo sauce with pizza sauce and spread over pizza crust. Top with cheddar cheese and spread red pepper, red onion and corn all over pizza. Add a bit of salt to season, and then add chicken and top with bocconcini cheese slices.
Place pizza on the grill (making sure heat is much lower) and cook for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Remove from heat and top with cilantro and red chili flakes. Cut using a pizza cutter, top with avocado slices and serve with your favourite summer wine! Enjoy!
Swap out the bocconcini balls for mini mozzarella balls or pulled-apart burrata.
Customize the toppings to include your favourite veggies.
For a lower-calorie option, you can make this pizza using cauliflower crust.
Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the toaster oven or the oven and top with fresh avocado.
Freeze this pizza for up to 2 months in plastic wrap or a freezer bag. Cook directly from frozen in the oven.
