Directions
- In a small bowl or mug, combine 1 cup of Neem Garam Pani (Luke Warm Water) with 2 tbsp of Cheeni (Sugar). Once the sugar is dissolved, add 1 tbsp of yeast, give it a good mix, cover, and let it rest for approximately 10 minutes or until it becomes frothy. The frothiness is the telltale sign that the yeast is activated and ready to work its magic.
- In a spacious bowl, take 2 cups of all-purpose flour, add 1 tsp of salt, and give it a thorough mix. Introduce the activated yeast mixture into the flour and continue mixing. Midway through, incorporate 1 tbsp of oil into the mix and knead the ingredients to form a soft, pliable dough. If needed, adjust the consistency with a bit more water. Now, cover the bowl and let the dough rest in a warm place for at least 1 hour or until it doubles in size, patiently awaiting the transformation into the perfect canvas for your Chicken Tikka Pizza.
- In a bowl, combine 150g of Boneless Chicken Cubes with 1 tbsp of Lehsan Adrak Ka Paste (Ginger Garlic Paste), 1 tsp of Dara Mirch (Chili Flakes), 1 tsp of Kali Mirch (Black Pepper Powder), and 1 tsp of Namak (Salt). Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 20-30 minutes, letting the flavors meld into a symphony of deliciousness.
- In a pan, heat 2 tbsp of oil. Add the marinated chicken and cook it until it turns white and is fully cooked, ensuring each piece is infused with the rich spices.
- Now, roll out the pizza dough and settle it in a pizza pan. Use a fork to gently punch the dough, creating the perfect foundation for your pizza. Spread 2 tbsp of pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
- Next, layer the pizza with 2 tbsp of pizza cheese, followed by 2 tbsp of chopped onions and another 2 tbsp of capsicum.
- Arrange the marinated and cooked chicken over the top, and generously layer 1.5 cups of pizza cheese.
- Elevate your creation by arranging a few slices of capsicum on top and sprinkling a pinch each of oregano, thyme, and rosemary, infusing your pizza with aromatic herbs.
- Bake the pizza for approximately 15 minutes at 200 degrees or until the crust achieves a glorious golden brown hue, a visual cue that it’s ready to be savored.
- Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes, then cut it into delectable pieces. Now, it’s time to sit back, relax, and relish your homemade Chicken Tikka Pizza. Bon appétit!
