BBQ Chicken Braids


BBQ Chicken Braid

Ingredients
Pizza Dough
BBQ Sauce
Cooked, Diced Chicken Breast
Fresh mozzarella, sliced thin
Red Onion, sliced thin
Cilantro

Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. 
Place a silpat mat (or large baking tray) on the counter and coat with cooking spray and sprinkle the top with a bit of flour. Roll (or spread) the dough out on top of the silpat mat into a rectangle. Drizzle a bit of sauce on top of the chicken and mix until evenly coated. Spoon some of the barbecue sauce down the center of the pizza dough, add slices of chopped mozzarella to the sauce followed by the chicken, cilantro, and red onion. Note: Don't use too much sauce or your pizza braid will be a bit soggy.
Cut even slits on both sides of the filling with a pizza cutter. Starting at one end, fold alternating strips at an angle across filling. Once you have completed the braid carefully place the silpat mat onto a baking sheet. 


Place into the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
