I remember reading about BBQ pizza and thinking it sounded kind of odd and not so doable for a kosher person. Then a few months ago, my sister in law tried out this BBQ Seitan Pizza, replacing the chicken with the chewy seitan and I learned what the fuss was about it and now is part of my regular rotation, a big hit in my family.
BBQ Seitan Pizza
Servings
4 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 pizza dough store bought or homemade
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 package seitan or about 8 oz. homemade cut into cubes
- 3/4 cup Gold’s BBQ sauce
- 8 oz. cheese of choice either shredded gouda or fresh Mozzarella
- 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
- chopped cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees. If you have a baking stone preheat it at the same time.
- Place a large frying pan over medium high heat. Pour in oil and cut up sietan. Allow to brown for about 5 minutes, stirring as needed to prevent sticking. Pour 1/2 cup BBQ sauce over seitan, turn off heat and stir until well coated.
- Roll/stretch out one pizza crust. Place it on the hot pizza stone or a baking pan.
- Spoon the rest of BBQ sauce on the crust and spread it evenly. Top sauce with the cheese then sprinkle on the seitan and thinly sliced red onion.
- Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and toppings are bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle on plenty of chopped cilantro. Cut into squares and serve immediately.
I knew you would love this and really any kind of cheese will do.
I want to eat this now. I have both seitan and pizza dough in my fridge. I am totally doing this. Amazing!
Never actually tried seitan. Maybe I should. Pizza and BBQ sauce is always good.
