BBQ Chicken Pizza

1 pizza crust (homemade or Boboli)
3 boneless, sinless chicken breasts
1 1/3 cups BBQ sauce, divided
6 ounces provolone cheese, grated
6 ounces gouda cheese, grated
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

In large Ziploc bag, combine chicken and 2/3 cup of the BBQ sauce. Marinate in fridge for 4 hours or overnight.
To cook, place chicken and marinade in small baking dish and bake for 30 min. at 325. Let chicken cool, then slice into thin pieces. Sprinkle half of the grated cheeses over crust. Spoon 2/3 cup BBQ sauce over cheese; cover with chicken and onion. Sprinkle on remaining cheese. Bake for 10 to 12 min. at 450. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.

This is sooo delish! I have never marinated it for for 4 hours let alone overnight. I'm lucky if it marinates for 1/2 an hour but I'm sure the longer the better. And I would also use a little less BBQ sauce on the actual pizza (not the marinade). One other thing I do to shorten the time is just to saute the chicken in the marinade. Hope you enjoy!
