How to Make Barbecued Chicken Tortilla Pizzas

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a bowl, combine 1.5 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced), 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, and 1/4 cup chopped red onion (optional).
  3. Lay out 4 large flour tortillas on a clean surface.
  4. Divide the chicken mixture evenly among the tortillas, spreading it out to within 1/2 inch of the edges.
  5. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (or your preferred cheese) evenly over the chicken mixture on each tortilla.
  6. Carefully place the tortillas onto the preheated grill grate.
  7. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are lightly browned and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from the grill and let cool slightly before cutting.
  9. Cut each tortilla into 8 wedges.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite salsa. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
