bbq chicken pizza

 We made this pizza the other night and it was divine!
The basic ingredient list

Pizza Dough (nigel makes this in the bread machine)
BBQ sauce (see recipe below)
Mushrooms
Spinach
Cooked shredded chicken
Basil (nigels half)
Cilantro (my half)
Cheese of course
Green onions sprinkled on top at the end.

It is really the BBQ sauce that makes it.
I found this recipe in an Essentially Food magazine.


Sauce
1TB butter
1 small red onion,peeled and chopped
2 small cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
1 cup canned tomatoes in juice (I used fresh)
1 cup water
1/4 cup tomato sauce (ketchup for the americans)
2TB red wine vinegar
1TB dijon mustard
1TB honey
3tsp worcestershire sauce
1.5tsp chilli powder
salt and pepper to taste

Melt the butter in a small sauce pan, add onion and garlic and saute for a few minutes until soft.
Add tomatoes and water and simmer for 10 min, then add the remaining ingredients. Stir and simmer for 20 min.
Transfer the mixture to a food processor and puree until silky smooth, then season to taste.
Makes 2.5 cups.
