6. Evenly spread the BBQ sauce mixture over the partially baked crust.
7. Top with 1 ½ cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced), ½ cup roasted cashews, ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, and 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
8. Bake for another 7-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is a deep golden brown.
