Keto Barbecue Chicken Pizza is one of our all-time favorite low carb pizza options perfect for pizza night, any night. Cut the carbs, not the flavor when it comes to your pizza.
Keto Barbecue Chicken Pizza is a classic blend of flavors. The zesty barbecue and the slightly salty flavor of the chicken compliment our Fathead Dough so completely!
I love a traditional Keto Pepperoni Pizza anytime but lately we are ADDICTED to this BBQ Chicken Pizza. See for yourself why because it is DIVINE.
Keto Barbecue Chicken Pizza 101
Oh, do we love pizza, let us count the ways! The best part about this recipe is that you can STILL enjoy all the flavors you love without all the carbs … and you won’t notice a different in taste. Now that is winning at the low carb life.
How to store keto barbecue chicken pizza: As with many foods, the best way to store your pizza is in an airtight container or tightly wrapped in the refrigerator. Your pizza will be good for 3-4 days if properly stored.
How to reheat pizza to keep it from getting soggy: Our favorite way to reheat low carb pizza is in the oven, hands down. Preheat your over to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with foil. Place your baking sheet in the oven so it preheats for a few minutes before having the pizza slices introduced. Carefully remove your baking sheet and place the pizza on the foil, put back in the oven and heat for 10 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on it and check to make sure it doesn’t overheat/burn.
Microwaving leftovers: If you are microwaving to reheat I do find that it’s best to microwave for a minute and then let it sit for another minute and it’ll be generally enough time for the crust to harden to not have to eat with a fork.
Now in general I’ll admit I just eat this pizza cold. It’s so divine cold but I know not everyone is a cold pizza person.
About reheating chicken: Something important to keep in mind about the chicken on your pizza. Chicken can only be safely reheated one time. So only reheat what you plan to eat.
