Oxygen Magazine Does It Again...

In the May issue of Oxygen Magazine I found once again another great recipe!

First of all, they found some great recipe's to use with this "Mango BBQ Sauce" they came up with. I made their BBQ Chicken Pizza with it. I will give you the recipe for the BBQ Sauce, then show you how to make the pizza...


Mango BBQ Sauce

1TBS olive oil
1 onion chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
1 mango, peeled, pitted and chopped
2 15-oz cans diced tomatoes
1Cup Water
1 6-oz can tomato paste
1/2 Cup maple syrup
1/2 Cup organic molasses
1/4 Cup apple cider vinegar
2 TBS lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
2 TBS Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground black pepper

1) Heat olive oil in a skillet on med/high heat

2) Add onions, garlic and mango. Saute until soft, about 3 min

3) Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine. bring to a boil on med/high heat. reduce heat, cover and simmer on low for 30min, stirring often

4) Remove from heat and allow to cool a little (I didn't though)

5) Transfer 2 Cups sauce to a blender and puree to liquify ingredients

5) Add pureed sauce to remaining sauce in pan and stir

You can store in containers in the fridge until ready to use!


***Now that you have your sauce, you will be using some of it for your pizza!***

BBQ Chicken Pizza

1 frozen whole wheat pizza crust (I used whole wheat pocket-less pita's as personal pan pizza's)

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1 tsp olive oil

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed

2 Cups Mango BBQ Sauce

1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped

4 oz mozzarella

1) Bake the crust according to directions (I just heated oven to 350 and baked until pita's were crisp)

2) Saute red onion in olive oil on med heat until browned, about 5 min.

3) Add chicken and sauce. Bring to a boil.

4) Reduce heat to simmer until sauce thickens and clings to chicken and chicken is cooked through. About 10 min

5) Spread chicken/sauce mixture onto pre-baked crust

6) Sprinkle with cilantro and cheese and heat at 400 degrees in oven for 5 min or until cheese has melted. Removed from oven and let cool 5 minutes
