Dough

Method

Prepare the Dough

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

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

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

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

  5. 5

    Let Dough Rise

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

Prepare Chicken Tikka

  1. 6

    Marinate Chicken

    In a bowl, mix yogurt, garam masala, cumin, coriander, paprika, garlic, ginger, salt, and lemon juice. Add the chicken and coat well. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight in the fridge for best flavor).

  2. 7

    Cook Chicken

    Preheat the grill or oven to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Let it rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

Assemble and Bake

  1. 8

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to heat.

  2. 9

    Roll Out Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large circle or rectangle, about 10-12 inches in diameter.

  3. 10

    Add Sauce and Toppings

    Transfer the rolled dough to a floured parchment paper. Spread a thin layer of any preferred pizza sauce (optional), then top with mozzarella cheese, grilled chicken tikka pieces, sliced red onion, and jalapeños if using.

  4. 11

    Bake Pizza

    Carefully transfer the pizza (with parchment) onto the preheated baking sheet or stone. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

  5. 12

    Garnish

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