Servings:

95milliliters

dark barbecue sauce 1serving

Fresh cilantro, for topping 85grams

2/3 cup grated smoked gouda cheese (about 1serving

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1teaspoon

extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing 85grams

2/3 cup grated part-skim mozzarella cheese (about 227grams

prepared pizza dough, at room temperature 1smalls

red onion, thinly sliced 227grams

skinless, boneless chicken breast

Recommended wine: Sangiovese, Shiraz, Barbera Wine

Pizza works really well with Sangiovese, Shiraz, and Barbera Wine. The best wine for pizza depends on the toppings! Red sauce pizza will call for a red wine with some acidity, such as a barberan or sangiovese. Add pepperoni or sausage and you can go bolder with a syrah. The Viva Diva Moscato Prosecco with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.
