This is also delicious with slow cooker pulled pork instead of the chicken.

Ingredients

4 tortillas
olive oil
1/4 – 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
2 cups of pork barbecue or cooked chopped chicken
2-3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
cilantro for garnish
1 medium red onion very thinly sliced
½ cup water
¼ cup distilled white vinegar
¼ cup apple cider vinegar or additional white vinegar
1 tablespoons sugar
1 ½ teaspoons fine sea salt
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, for heat

Instructions

Make the pickled onions an hour or two ahead of the pizzas. Place the thinly sliced onions in a mason jar or other glass jar with a lid. Combine the rest of the ingredients in a pyrex pitcher and microwave for two minutes. Remove and stir until sugar and salt are dissolved. Carefully pour over onions and cool for 30 minutes. At this point they are ready to use, but I always prefer them pickled a little more.
Pizzas: Drizzle a layer of olive oil over a rimmed cookie sheet. Wipe both sides of the tortilla in the oil enough to just cover. Top each tortilla with 1-2 tablespoons of barbeque sauce and 1/2 cup of pork or chicken. Layer 1/2 cups of cheese on top of all. Bake at 400 for about 10 minutes, cheese should be melted and starting to brown and edges just crisping.
Garnish with cilantro and pickled red onion.
