Ingredients
- 300 g plain flour, about 2 1/2 cups
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp oil
- 180 ml warm water, about 3/4 cup
- 5 tbsp pizza sauce
- 150 g mozzarella cheese, grated
- 100 g cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 capsicum, sliced
- 1 small onion, sliced
- 8 black olives, sliced
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Method
- Mix the flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Add the oil and warm water and knead for 8 minutes into a soft, smooth dough. Cover and let it rise until doubled.
- Punch down the dough, divide in two and roll each into a 20 cm round.
- Heat a heavy non-stick pan or kadhai on low heat. Place a pizza base in the greased pan and cook, covered, for 3 to 4 minutes until the underside is set and lightly golden.
- Flip the base. Spread on the sauce, then top with the chicken, capsicum, onion, olives and cheese.
- Cover the pan and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 minutes until the cheese melts and the base is crisp underneath.
- Sprinkle with oregano, slice and serve hot.
Good to know: Let the dough rise for about 1 hour in a warm spot. Keep the heat low so the base cooks through without burning.
