These crispy pizza rolls feature smoky BBQ chicken, a blend of cheeses, and a golden crust, making them a perfect snack for game day or any casual gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great!)
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (recommended: Sweet Baby Ray’s)
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 1 package (16 oz) refrigerated pizza dough or crescent roll dough (Pillsbury pizza dough recommended)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (to brush on top for golden crust)
  • Extra BBQ sauce for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, diced red onion, mozzarella, cheddar, and chopped cilantro (if using). Mix gently until evenly combined.
  3. Lightly flour your work surface and roll the pizza dough into a roughly 12×14-inch rectangle. If using crescent dough, press seams together to form a solid sheet about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Evenly spread the BBQ chicken mixture over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
  5. Starting on the long side, roll the dough into a tight log and pinch edges to seal.
  6. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the log into 1-inch thick slices to make about 12 rolls.
  7. Place the rolls cut side up on the baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart. Brush tops with olive oil.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbling, watching closely the last 5 minutes.
  9. Let the rolls cool for 5 minutes before serving with extra BBQ sauce for dipping.

Notes

Do not over-soak the chicken with BBQ sauce to avoid soggy dough. Pinch edges firmly to prevent filling leaks. Use olive oil to brush tops for a golden crust. Let rolls cool slightly before serving to set the cheese. For gluten-free or dairy-free versions, use appropriate dough and cheese substitutes. Rolls can be prepared ahead and refrigerated or frozen unbaked.
