BBQ Chicken French Bread Pizza

INGREDIENTS 

• 1 onion, peeled and sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard ( I used a gourmet caramel onion one that worked great!)
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 2 cups cooked chicken breasts, diced (use leftover chicken if you want a fast meal!)
• 1 lb French bread
• 8 slices provolone cheese

DIRECTIONS

1. Melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Separate onion slices into rings and sauté with brown sugar until softened. 
2. Add remaining ingredients (except bread and cheese). Let simmer for 20 minutes, then stir in diced chicken.
3. Cover and set aside.
4. Heat oven to 350°.
5. Cut French bread in half lengthwise and place cut side up on baking sheet.
6. Divide barbecued chicken mixture evenly on bread halves, spreading to edges.
7. Place 4 slices provolone evenly on each half.
8. Bake for 10 minutes at 350° until cheese is melted. Broil for 1 minute or until cheese begins to brown slightly. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
9. Cut each half into 4-6 slices and serve.
