Barbecued Chicken Pizzas

Yield: 2 pizzas (4 pieces each).

Ingredients
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup barbecue sauce, divided
1 tube (13.8 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Gouda cheese
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro

Instructions
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.
Using long-handled tongs, dip a paper towel in cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack.
Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 170�, basting frequently with 1/2 cup barbecue sauce.
Set aside and keep warm. Divide dough in half.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle.
Lightly brush both sides of dough with oil; place on grill.
Cover and grill over medium heat for 1-2 minutes or until the bottom is lightly browned.
Remove from grill. Cut the chicken into 1/2-in. cubes.
Spread the grilled side of each pizza with 1/4 cup barbecue sauce; layer with chicken, onion, cheese and cilantro.
Return to grill.
Cover and cook each pizza for 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is lightly browned and cheese is melted.
