Claim Jumper Barbecue Chicken Pizza
Yield: 2 individual-size pizzas
Ingredients
Pizza Dough
- 3 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 package yeast
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup hot water (125 degrees F)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Topping
- 1 ounce sweet barbecue sauce
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 ounce red onion, julienned
- 3 ounces chicken, cooked
- 1 ounce Gouda cheese, shredded
- 1/8 ounce fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Pizza Dough
- Combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, undissolved yeast and salt into a mixing bowl. Stir the water and the olive oil into the dry ingredients and then slowly add enough of the remaining flour to soften the dough. Place dough on a floured surface and knead approximately 6 minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide dough into two equal portions and roll each piece into a ball. Cover and let stand until the dough rises and is soft enough to stretch. Stretch the dough into round shape and top with desired toppings.
Topping
- Top the stretched dough in order beginning with the barbecue sauce. Place the pizza on a pizza stone in the oven at 400 degrees F and bake until golden brown.
