Mesquite Smoked Chicken and Peppers Pizza

Doesn't a barbecue chicken pizza sound good? You can have one tonight with this deliciously simple recipe. You can use leftover chicken or cook some up from scratch to put on the pizza. Let it grill for a few minutes on the barbecue and dinner is ready. Feel free to substitute ingredients if you wish. Tomatoes, herbs and other tasty ingredients work well on the grill.

The cheese combination on this pizza is really good. Let your barbecue pizza cook until the cheese is all melted and bubbly so the flavors combine perfectly. Provolone, mozzarella, and Asiago cheeses are made for each other. Watch the crust though... it will tell you if the grill is too hot by browning too quickly. You can cool down your grill by turning down the burner on a gas grill or by moving coals away from the food on a charcoal grill. After a few tries, you will become an expert at grilling pizza. Do not worry if the crust gets a little too done the first couple of tries. It is still delicious.

Serve your barbecue chicken pizza with a fresh green salad for a full meal. Leftovers can be quickly reheated in the oven to maintain a crisp crust and eaten for lunch or a snack. If pizza is a favorite meal at your house, everyone will soon discover the fun of making your own pizzas on the grill. You cannot get this flavor from any pizza restaurant. The grill gives the entire pizza a delicious smoky flavor that cannot be beat.
