01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

Yeast 1 tbsp Sugar 1 tsp Milk 1 Cup Flour 2 Cups Salt ½ tsp Milk ½ Cup Oil 2 tbsp Yogurt 1 Cup Coriander Powder 1 tsp Chilli Powder 1 tsp Cumin Powder 1 tsp Salt 1 tsp Tikka Masala 1 tbsp Chilli flakes 1 tsp Ginger Garlic Paste 1 tbsp Chicken 500g Oil 1 tbsp for frying Ketchup ½ Cup Mayonnaise ½ Cup Mustard Paste 1 tbsp Soy Sauce 1 tsp Oregano ½ tsp Mozzarella Cheese Capsicum, Tomato, Onion Oregano

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Step 1

Start by activating the yeast: mix the yeast, sugar, and warm milk in a cup and stir well. Let it sit for about 15 minutes until it becomes frothy.

02

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Pour in the fermented yeast mixture and gradually add more milk while kneading until you get a smooth, soft dough.

03

Step 3

Add the oil and knead again for a few minutes. Grease the bowl, place the dough inside, cover it, and let it rise for about an hour until it doubles in size.

04

Step 4

While the dough is rising, prepare the chicken. Mix yogurt with coriander powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, chili flakes, tikka masala, and ginger-garlic paste. Toss the chicken in this marinade along with some oil. Cook it in a pan over medium heat until the chicken is cooked through and nicely browned. Set aside.

05

Step 5

For the sauce, simply mix ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard paste, soy sauce, and oregano in a small bowl. Set this aside for later.

06

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball out to your desired thickness. Place the dough on a greased pizza pan and spread some sauce around the edges to form a crust.

07

Step 7

Use a fork to poke a few holes in the dough, then spread sauce in the center. Top with mozzarella cheese, the cooked chicken, sliced capsicum, tomatoes, onions, and a little more cheese. Sprinkle oregano over the top.

08

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the pizza for 20-25 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.

03 / EXTRA DETAILS

Good to know.

Cook's tip

- Use cooked chicken to avoid undercooking the meat on the pizza.
- Preheat the oven well so the crust turns crispy.
- Add fresh herbs like basil or oregano after baking for extra aroma.

Serving ideas

Serve with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables to balance the richness. A side of garlic bread or a light soup also makes a nice complement.

Storage & leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to keep the crust crisp instead of using a microwave.
