Pizza Dough

Method

Prepare the Dough

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center, pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let it Rise

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

Prepare the Toppings

  1. 5

    Combine Chicken and BBQ Sauce

    In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the bourbon BBQ sauce until well coated.

  2. 6

    Slice the Onion

    Thinly slice the red onion and set it aside.

  3. 7

    Chop the Cilantro

    Rinse and chop the fresh cilantro and set aside.

Assemble and Bake the Pizza

  1. 8

    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. 9

    Roll Out the Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

  3. 10

    Add the Toppings

    Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a pizza stone or baking sheet. Spread the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over the crust. Top with sliced red onion, cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese.

  4. 11

    Bake the Pizza

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden.

  5. 12

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven, sprinkle with chopped cilantro, slice, and serve hot.
