If I could only eat one thing in my life again, I think it would be pizza. Pasta would come a close second, but pizza is definitely my all-time favorite meal. I have no problem demolishing a whole pizza by myself. In fact, I have been known to eat more than my husband when it comes to a pizza showdown!

While I do love eating pizza at our favorite local restaurant, sometimes I just feel like making homemade pizza from scratch. Let me tell you a little secret – making homemade pizza from scratch isn’t that hard!

It may take a little longer than using a store-bought pizza crust, but you totally get the satisfaction of knowing you prepared a made-from-scratch pizza dough with this recipe.

Let’s talk toppings!

When it comes to pizza, I will pretty much eat anything, unless it’s overly spicy, but I’d have to say my favorite pizza topping is definitely BBQ Chicken! This Bacon-Onion BBQ Chicken Pizza is everything you look for in a pizza. You’ve got the smokiness of the barbecue sauce and bacon combined with the sweetness of the onion and tanginess of the feta. This is all brought together with just enough greenery to make you feel a little better about demolishing a pizza!

A few tips about the pizza dough you’ll need to know.

When it comes to making the base, my biggest piece of advice is to not over knead the dough. Over-kneaded dough will not turn out as light and fluffy as you want it. You’ll end up with a crispy, crumbly crust. Kneading really only takes about three to four minutes, just enough to combine the oil into the dough!

Apart from that, there is nothing much to this recipe other than a delicious pile of good old barbecue chicken, bacon, and onion.

Notes

Home Chef Tip: If you don't want to make your own pizza dough, store bought will do just fine. Cooking time should still be the same, but prep time will reduce to about 15 minutes.
