Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) for a crispy crust.
  2. Thinly slice the onion, melt butter and oil in a skillet, and caramelize onions over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes.
  3. Raise heat and continue cooking onions for an additional 20 minutes until deeply caramelized.
  4. Grease a pizza pan with olive oil, stretch the dough, and drizzle with olive oil.
  5. Layer the caramelized onions, then chicken, followed by goat cheese, mozzarella, and red pepper flakes on the crust.
  6. Bake the pizza for 15 to 18 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.
  7. In a saucepan, simmer balsamic vinegar and sugar for about 10 minutes until reduced into a glaze.
  8. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the baked pizza, slice, and serve.
