This BBQ Chicken Apple Pizza has all the flavors of the original, with the delicious addition of apples and cilantro…and extra bbq sauce drizzled on top! Made with individual flatbread crusts, this pizza comes together in no time at all and is sure to be a hit with the whole family!
Anyone who has ever looked inside my fridge can tell you that I have a slight issue with condiments…..and by issue, I mean obsession! My fridge is packed-to-the-gills full….to the point where things are often falling out on you while you’re looking for something….and I think it’s safe to say that 50 percent of it is condiments!! I’m sure you think I’m exaggerating….(who has that many condiments in their fridge?)….but if you would take a look, you would understand!
In addition to the usual suspects, like ketchup, 4 different types of mustard, mayonnaise, bbq sauce, 7 different types of salad dressing, tartar sauce, and a couple different types of taco sauce……(!) there’s also pesto (2 flavors), sweet chili sauce, secret stadium sauce, hot giardiniera peppers, oyster sauce, several marinades, tapenade, various artichoke and eggplant spreads, sweet ‘n’ hot pepper relish, and about 4 different types of cream cheese…..and that’s just what I can see without digging!
So, you see, I have a bit of an obsession with condiments. Which is fun when you’re a food blogger and looking for different flavors to experiment with….and fun when friends stop by last-minute for a visit….but not so fun when you nearly break your toes every time you open your fridge! I’d like to say I’m in the middle of organizing and clearing it all out….but the reality is I’m NOT! Because I’m a condiment lover, and condiment lovers need their condiments. They make everything taste better….like this BBQ Chicken Apple Pizza! With bbq sauce on the bottom AND the top, it’s a condiment-lover’s dream. And you don’t even need a packed-to-the-gills fridge to pull it off.

Condiments are a necessity – they come with the job 🙂 I love the flavor combo here, Cathy!
what kind of apple did you use.
I used Gala – my favorite! 🙂
The door on my fridge is overrun with condiments. And we hardly ever use any of them! I love this pizza!
Again – the apple recipes are EXACTLY what I need right now! I love that this pizza looks fresh and a little lighter on the flatbreads! Can’t wait to try it!
Great idea! Apples are like my favorite thing ever but I never thought to put them on pizza!
What a fabulous idea! YUM!!!
OMG, my refrigerator is the same way, Cathy! I don’t have enough room in the door of my fridge for all of the condiments. There are condiments on the shelves too!

I tried this, but with bacon added and dough…SO good! I have an abundance of fresh picked apples, so I needed to find some apple-y recipes. Thanks for sharing!
