Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pizza dough
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)
  • Chili flakes, for extra heat (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat the oven to 475°F (245°C).
  2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pre-made pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.
  3. Transfer to Baking Sheet: Place the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet or pizza stone.
  4. Mix Chicken and Sauce: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken and chili garlic sauce until well coated.
  5. Spread the Chicken: Evenly distribute the chili garlic chicken mixture over the pizza dough.
  6. Add Vegetables: Scatter the sliced red bell pepper and red onion over the chicken.
  7. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the pizza.
  8. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the top for added flavor.
  9. Season: Sprinkle dried oregano and chili flakes if desired for extra flavor.
  10. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  11. Rest: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  12. Garnish: Top with fresh cilantro for a burst of color and flavor, if desired.
  13. Slice and Serve: Cut into slices and serve hot.

Notes

  • Letting the pizza rest for 10 minutes after baking allows the cheese to set slightly, making it easier to slice and enhancing flavor.
  • Adding chili flakes gives an extra kick if you prefer a spicier pizza.
  • Fresh cilantro garnish adds a fresh and colorful finish but is optional.
