CPK’s BBQ Chicken Pizza

A vegetarian at the time, I loved their deliciously thin and creatively adorned pizzas more than life itself. CPK was one of my favorite things. In the years since leaving California, I’ve created occasional knockoffs of some of the CPK pizza varieties I remember, since there’s no CPK within at least 500 miles of the ranch—maybe even farther. Today I want to share my rendering of their very popular BBQ Chicken Pizza, which was a favorite of Jeff, my (platonic) roommate from Taiwan.

Ahhh, Jeff. Long story. For today, enjoy this pizza! Here’s what you need for the pizza crust. This is simple stuff here, my darlings! To make the crust, sprinkle yeast over warm water and let it stand for a few minutes. Next, add the salt to the flour. And stir it around in the mixer for a few seconds. Next, with the mixer on low, drizzle in the olive oil. Next, pour in the warm water/yeast mixture. Enough said.

I have always been a little squeamish around raw meat and after preparing this meal, that fact has not changed. In full belief that Cooks Illustrated knew what they were doing, I bought my chicken breast with the skin and ribs attached as they recommended, got home, and freaked out. Channeling my inner butcher (which, I discovered, doesn’t exist), I grabbed my kitchen shears and started to hack up the chicken breast. Incidentally, Cooks Illustrated did not provide the detailed information a novice butcher like myself needed for this undertaking. Separating the cold, jiggly raw meat from the sharp bones of the rib cage was seriously gross.

Second, before telling you about the splendor of the crispy golden chicken topped with a pan sauce full of caramelized shallots and a hint of sage, you should know how much I detest and loathe chicken breast.

Most pre-10AM treats take a hot minute to prepare and they’re always crowd-pleasers. Show me the person who flips off Cinnamon French Toast or Apple Pie Pancakes; who thumbs her nose at Eggs Benedict or a plate piled high with Hash Browns.

Even if I screw it up, the mantra seems to be that there is no such thing as a bad pie. Only the “this is pretty darn good pizza, pass another slice please” pizza, the “thank you soooo much for making pizza mommy” pizza (trust me, dinner compliments from the six and under crowd are a rare treat so this is the sign of a job well done), and the “Get your hand off that last slice, I called dibs and I’ll fight ya for it if I have to” kickin’ awesome pizza. This pizza is of the third distinction. I made my own crust (my recipe’s here), but you can also use a pre-bought dough or pizza crust and it will still work just perfectly.

Better Than Takeout Orange Chicken

I think I stood there for a solid 20 minutes looking in the cupboards and staring into the freezer hoping that I would be struck by some ingenious idea. Then I saw the oranges, and it hit me “O-raang Shh-ikun”….that is orange chicken if you can’t understand the accent.
