STORY BEHIND THE DISH
The BBQ Chicken Pizza at CPK is my favorite item on the menu. The ingredients are simple & the finished product is delicious! 

MODIFICATIONS 
You can make your own dough or use a pre-made product. If you don't have time to cook chicken use a rotisserie chicken, chop the white meat into pieces, & coat with BBQ sauce.
