Homemade Chicken Pizza

 

homemade chicken pizzaHomemade pizza is an interesting cooking task in our kitchen. With kids around, it will be more fun. Once we learned to bake it at home, we would then love to make our own pizza and forget about home delivery options. I have baked pizza for my kids, nieces and nephews many times and they just love it. Bake our own and save our pocket too.

ingredients for chicken pizzaPrepare the pizza dough base on a non stick pan.

Brush some oil on the surface of rolled pizza based (to avoid wetness from toppings absorbed into the dough)

In a pan, heat up some oil (1 table spoon) and cook the chicken pieces for 5 minutes. Sprinkle some salt and white pepper. Remove from pan and keep aside (drain the excess oil using kitchen tissue).

Let the pizza with the completed toppings rest and rise for minimum 20-30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven for 175 Celsius. Heat up both top and bottom heat wire. Bake the pizza for 15-20 minutes (or until the bottom turn slightly golden brown).
