Volume (or area) stacks up incredibly quickly with the diameter of circular foods. A 9” pizza will be 410cm^2 of pizza, and a single extra inch diameter increase for a 10” pizza will give you 506cm^2, or 23% more.
From my experience, the typical pizza I consume is 12 inches in diameter and 220kcal per slice. Gluten free pizza bases at my shop seem to be slightly lower cals per 100g so we’ll make is 210kcal. My pizzas usually also include pepperoni and/or beef mince so err on the lower side since yours has one meat and it’s chicken breast. Let’s call it 195/slice.
195 * 8 = 1560, so I’d guess somewhere between 1400 and 1700 for the pizza if this were a 12” base. You can calculate the area of a circle to scale this number up or down if you know the pizza size.
1830kcal for 13”.
1310kcal for 11”.
1083kcal for 10”.
877kcal for 9”.

If I had to guess, I would say ~300 cal per slice, maybe a bit more or less. Looks like it is fairly loaded with cheese and also the bbq sauce will add some calories as well.
