Pizza Dough

Method

Make the Dough

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the frothy yeast mixture and olive oil.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Mix the ingredients together until a dough forms. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Pizza

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

  2. 6

    Shape the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a floured surface. Roll it out to your desired thickness and shape.

  3. 7

    Add Toppings

    Spread BBQ sauce evenly over the rolled-out dough. Top with shredded grilled chicken, sliced red onion, and shredded mozzarella cheese.

  4. 8

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the pizza to the oven (or onto the hot pizza stone) and bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  5. 9

    Finish with Cilantro

    Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro before slicing and serving.
