Dough Preparation

1

Activate Yeast

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

2

Mix Dough

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

3

Knead Dough

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

4

Let Dough Rise

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

Assembling and Baking

5

Preheat Oven

Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).

6

Roll Out Dough

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

7

Prepare Pizza Base

Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

8

Add Toppings

Spread the BBQ sauce evenly over the base, then add shredded chicken, pineapple chunks, and red onion slices. Top with mozzarella cheese.

9

Bake Pizza

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden.
