Ingredients
For the Dough
3½ cups (440 g) all-purpose flour
1 cup (240 ml) warm water
2¼ tsp (7 g) instant yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
For the Toppings
½ cup pizza sauce
1½ cups (150 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup cooked chicken, diced or shredded
½ green bell pepper, finely chopped
½ small red onion, thinly sliced
½ cup sliced black olives
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Make the Dough:
In a large bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. Add the flour, salt, and olive oil. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead:
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 7–10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Let It Rise:
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Shape the Mini Pizzas:
Divide the dough into 8–10 equal pieces. Roll or press each piece into a small round pizza crust. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Add the Sauce & Toppings:
Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over each crust. Sprinkle with mozzarella, then add the cooked chicken, green peppers, red onion, and black olives. Finish with Italian seasoning and a light drizzle of olive oil.
Bake:
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake for approximately 12–16 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crusts are golden brown.
Serve:
Let the mini pizzas cool for a couple of minutes, then serve warm with extra pizza sauce for dipping. 🍕❤️
