Spicy Chicken Pizza with Button Mushrooms



Spicy chicken pizza with button mushrooms is a hot version for someone who loves spicy food. My family loves homemade pizza as I am very generous with the topping.

Ingredients - Pizza

1 lb. (450gm) flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
10oz. lukewarm water
3 teaspoons yeast
2 teaspoons sugar

Ingredients – Chicken and Button Mushroom topping

1 lb. (450gram) chicken breast
4 cloves garlic chopped
1 big onion chopped
1 big tomato cubed
3 capsicums chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon curry powder
Pinch saffron
½ lb (200gram) button mushroom sliced
2 sprigs curry leaves
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon tomato sauce
1 tablespoon soya sauce
1 teaspoon pepper powder
2 tablespoon olive oil
8 oz.(200gram)mozzarella or processed cheese

Recipe - Pizza

Mix flour and salt in a basin. Make a hollow and add sugar and then yeast add the lukewarm water. Let the yeast dissolve in the water. Mix to a soft dough. Make a hollow and pour the oil and knead the dough for about 10 minutes. To test whether it is properly kneaded, press gently with a floured finger. If it rises quickly it is enough.Shape into a ball and leave it to rise until double the size or 1 hour.

Recipe - Chicken and Mushroom topping

Season the chicken, boil and shred it.
Place a wok on the stove and pour oil. Fry garlic, onion, curry leaves and capsicum. Add chicken and button mushrooms and mix well. Add tomato, curry powder, chili powder, saffron, pepper, and salt. Add the tomato sauce and soya sauce.
To make the pizza, punch the dough and take out the air. Roll out and cut rounds. Grease a baking tray and keep the pizza dough round leaving room to rise. Spread filling and flatten it. Sprinkle with grated cheese and bake in a pre-heated oven at 220C for 20 minutes.
