Grilled Pizza with Roast Chicken, Caramelized Onions, and Goat Cheese

This pizza is sooooo stubborn.

Fabulous grilled pizzed with rotisserie chicken, roasted potatoes, caramelized onions, and goat cheese. Yummo!

I’ve been trying to get it to show you how amazing it is but it just won’t cooperate. I’ve prepared and photographed it twice now, but it refuses to show you it’s good side. Maybe it’s shy.

I mean, it looks aight, but not quite worthy of a 2 hour drive to Toronto in heavy traffic just to get it. Which it totally is.

I first tried a pizza similar to this at Beer Bistro in Toronto. It was duck confit pizza, and it was incredible.

So incredible that I went back for it three times.

But gas prices are a little out of control and Toronto traffic is horrifying, so I decided to come up with my own version that I could make at home.

Make this pizza in the oven or on the grill.

Rotisserie chicken and ready-prepared naan bread are clutch ingredients here. After caramelizing onions* and roasting potatoes to put on the pizza, I’m not messing around with homemade dough or rendering any duck meat in it’s own fat. I use the dark meat of the chicken because it doesn’t get dry while baking on the pizza. (Bonus: I can use the white meat to make a meal for my kids because they’re not touching anything with goat cheese on it!)

I used to bake this pizza in the oven but after seeing grilled pizzas popping up all over the internet this week, like this one and this one, I decided to try it on the grill. Winning! The grill creates a perfectly crispy crust. I’ll be making it this way until, oh, October or whenever the next cold front passes through.

Oops. I couldn't wait.
