The 15-Minute Craving Killer
Why wait for delivery when you can have a perfectly crisp thin-crust pizza in minutes? By using a flour tortilla as the base, we eliminate dough prep while achieving a crackly, tavern-style texture. The smoky sweetness of BBQ sauce paired with red onion and melted mozzarella makes this a protein-packed meal that feels like a cheat day treat.

- Large Flour Tortillas2 Count

- Mozzarella (Shredded)1 Cup
- Red Onion (Sliced Thin)1/4 Cup

The instruction
The Pre-Crisp: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Brush both sides of the tortillas with a tiny amount of olive oil and place them directly on the oven rack for 2 minutes. This “pre-bake” ensures the center doesn’t get soggy once the sauce is added.
The Sauce & Cheese: Remove tortillas and place them on a baking sheet. Spread a thin, even layer of BBQ sauce to the very edges. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella over the sauce.
Load It Up: Distribute the shredded chicken and red onion slices evenly. Top with the remaining cheese. This “cheese sandwich” method locks the toppings in place.
Final Bake: Return to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and the tortilla edges are dark golden brown. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a tiny drizzle of extra BBQ sauce. Slice with a pizza wheel and enjoy!
