BBQ Chicken Grits Pizza
Ingredients (6 Servings)
- 1 1/4 cups stone-ground grits
- Kosher salt
- 1 c. shredded rotisserie chicken
- 1/3 cup barbecue sauce, plus more for drizzling
- 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
- 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 3 oz. mozzarella, coarsely grated (3/4 cup)
- Chopped fresh cilantro, for serving
Directions
- Bring 5 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Slowly whisk in grits.
- Reduce heat and simmer, stirring often (grits will bubble in spots), until liquid has absorbed and grits are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt; let stand for 5 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Combine chicken and barbecue sauce in a bowl.
- Scrape grits onto a baking sheet and spread out to form a 1/2-inch-thick oval; let stand for 5 minutes.
- Bake until warm, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from oven and switch oven to broil. Top grits with chicken, jalapeño (if desired), onion, and mozzarella.
- Broil, about 6 inches from heat, until beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Drizzle with barbecue sauce and sprinkle with cilantro.
