Gluten Free BBQ Chicken Pizza

Pizza night doesn't have to feel like a compromise, and this smoky, cheesy BBQ chicken pie proves it completely. The key move here is tossing the shredded chicken in BBQ sauce and smoked paprika before it ever hits the crust, so every bite is deeply saucy and flavored all the way through — not just on top. Thin-sliced red onion and optional sweet corn kernels add texture and brightness that balance the richness of all that melted mozzarella. One thing worth noting: the recipe specifically calls for a BBQ sauce with a certified gluten-free label, which matters more than most people realize since malt vinegar and other hidden additives can sneak into standard bottles. Preheating a baking sheet or pizza stone before the pizza goes on is the trick that gets you a genuinely crisp bottom crust rather than a soggy disappointment. After 18 to 22 minutes in a hot oven, you get bubbling golden cheese and a crust that holds its own when you pick up a slice. A scatter of fresh cilantro right before serving ties everything together with a little herby lift. Makes 4 servings.
