Steps to make pizza at home

Mix all the dough ingredients and knead it until it forms in dough, not too thick, not too light. Cover the dough tightly and place it aside and let the dough rise. Now make pizza topping.

In a pan add 2tbsp olive oil and add chicken strips. Fry the chicken strips until it changes colour and then add 1/2 tsp salt or according to taste, red chilli powder, coriander powder and mix well. 

Fry the chicken for 15 more minutes as it's bonless so it will take less time to cook.

Then add sliced onion in this chicken and saute for 1 minute. Don't overcook onion, just fry it for one minute. Your chicken topping is ready.

The dough will take atleast 1 and 1/2 hour to rise, after that roll the dough in a circula shape. 

Place the dough in a greased baking pizza tray. Add first layer of pizza sauce. Then add chicken topping on it, add chopped tomatoes and sliced capsicum on it. Add 2 chopped green chillies on it. Now it's time to add cheese on top. Cover the pizza with lots of mozerella cheese, as I'm a cheese lover and i love my cheesy pizza. Brush the edges of pizza with oil so it will give it a beautiful brown look when you bake it.

Preheat your oven for 5 minutes on 200°c. Then bake your pizza for 35 minutes on 200°c and your homemade pizza is ready.

Do you cook chicken before putting it on pizza?

Yes it's necessary to fry your chicken before baking. Take boneless chicken stripes and fry for 10-15 minutes, then add them on pizza and bake it.
