BBQ Chicken Pizza with Bacon

I have a serious addiction to the BBQ Pizza at my local pizza place. For the price of this homemade pizza…I can make over 3-4 of them! Not to mention I can add more chicken and customize.

Ingredients:
1 store bought Large premade pizza crust (I got mine from Plumb’s  bakery, made fresh that day)
1 Cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
1 large cooked chicken breast diced (I made extra earlier in the week so I would have leftovers)
3-4 pieces of cooked and crumbled bacon (also made earlier and used the leftover pieces)
Thinly sliced red onion to taste
About 1 1/2 – 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese (Buy on sale and freeze…keeps very well)
1 TBS butter or margarine
2 TBS toasted sesame seeds (optional, but highly recommended)

Spread BBQ sauce with the back of a large spoon onto crust avoiding edges. Sprinkle with Chicken, Bacon, sliced Red Onion and top with Mozzarella Cheese avoiding crust. With a basting brush, lightly coat crust with softened butter, sprinkle crust with toasted sesame seeds. Place pizza directly on the rack of a pre-heated 375 degree oven until ingredients are warmed and cheese is melted. About 12-15 minutes.
