Finally, sprinkle fresh cilantro on each.
Drizzle a little extra BBQ sauce over each pizza.
Place baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until heated through and cheese is fully melted.

Recipe Notes

Tips and tricks:

Rotisserie chicken:

I buy the pre-made, pre-shredded package at Costco. 1 package can be used for lots of meals that week and saves time by not having to shred it yourself!

Naan:

You can find smaller packs at Trader Joe's in the frozen section, or if you have a big family like me, I buy the huge package at Costco. We use them for lots of things, even breakfast pizzas or topped with Nutella for example. Oh and garlic bread even! (Can you tell we love Costco 😍?)

BBQ sauce:

I suggest 1-2 bottles because it depends how small/big the bottle is and how saucy you like your pizza. Again for us, we like Sweet Baby Ray's and you guessed it, sold as two big bottles at Costco. Hey, I'd rather you have too much than not enough. Just sayin'.

This recipe is so versatile. With the Naan bread, you can make any pizza you want in no time, even letting the little's "make their own" with a variety of toppings. they have fun and dinner is ready quick.
