    There's something about mini pizzas that is just so fun! These BBQ Chicken Mini Pizzas are no exception. You'll love how easy they are to make.  I like to get a a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store and shred the meat - it's quick and easy!

    🧂 Ingredients

    • Frozen Dinner Rolls
    • Cheddar Cheese
    • Shredded Chicken
    • BBQ Sauce
    • Granulated Garlic
    • Dried Parsley
    • Fresh Chives (optional)
    • Red Onion (optional)

    This is meant to be a brief overview of the homemade mini pizzas recipe. For step-by-step instructions and a full printable recipe card with ingredients, please scroll down to the teal box below or Jump to Recipe.

    🔪Instructions

    1. Thaw the dinner rolls following the directions on the package.
    2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
    3. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
    4. Using your hands, gently stretch dinner rolls into a flat circle.
    5. Poke holes using a fork to avoid bubbles.
    6. Sprinkle the dough with granulated garlic and dried parsley.
    7. Partially bake for about 10 minutes until the rolls are cooked through. Do not overbake!
    8. While the dough bakes, prepare the chicken. Mix together ¾ cups of BBQ sauce with the chicken and set aside. (Reserve the rest of the BBQ sauce).
    9. Spread each roll with a scant teaspoon of BBQ sauce.
    10. Add the BBQ chicken and sprinkle with cheese.

    📖 Variations

    Many BBQ chicken pizzas call for thinly sliced red onions. My family doesn't care for them, but if yours does, add them into the chicken and BBQ sauce mixture for a little extra flavor.

    You can use a store-bought BBQ sauce, or make your own. I try to have some of this Homemade Sweet & Spicy BBQ on hand. It really makes the pizzas so delicious!
