01

Step 1

Start by proofing the yeast: mix yeast, sugar, and milk in a cup, stir well, and let it sit for about 15 minutes until it’s frothy and bubbly.

02

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and the fermented yeast mixture. Gradually add milk while kneading until you get a soft, smooth dough. Then, add the oil and knead it in well. Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise for about an hour, until it doubles in size.

03

Step 3

While the dough is rising, marinate the chicken with yogurt, coriander powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, chili flakes, tikka masala, and ginger-garlic paste. Add a bit of oil and mix everything together well.

04

Step 4

Heat some oil in a pan and cook the marinated chicken until it’s cooked through and nicely browned. Set it aside once done.

05

Step 5

For the sauce, mix ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard paste, soy sauce, and oregano in a bowl. Set this aside for later.

06

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two balls. Lightly flour your surface and roll each ball out into a circle. Place the dough on a greased pizza pan. Spread some sauce around the edges and cover the sides.

07

Step 7

Use a fork to prick the dough a few times. Spread sauce evenly over the center, then top with mozzarella cheese, the cooked chicken, capsicum, tomato, onion, and a little more cheese. Sprinkle oregano over the top.

08

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the pizza for 20-25 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Enjoy your homemade chicken pizza!
