- Spread a thin layer of barbecue sauce over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.
- Sprinkle a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
- Add the BBQ pulled pork evenly over the cheese.
- Scatter the thinly sliced red onion on top.
Bake the Pizza:
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
Garnish and Serve:
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves if desired.
