Method:

Marinate the chicken with yogurt, ginger garlic paste and tandoori masala and keep it aside for about 2 hrs then cook this chicken in a frying pan.

Mix sugar and yeast in half a cup of lukewarm water and set aside fro 10-15 minutes. You will see frothy top which would indicate that the yeast is active and you can use it.

            In a large bowl mix flour and salt, add the yeast mixture. Knead dough with some more water until it forms a ball, just like chapatti dough.

            Brush a big bowl with some oil and place the dough, cover with plastic wrap and let it sit fro 2 hours on the kitchen counter. The dough will rise and will become 3 times bigger than the actual size.

            Punch the dough to let the air out, knead again and leave it for another 45 minutes until it rises again. Your pizza dough is ready now. Divide it n three portions.

            Roll one portion with a rolling pin according to the size of your pan and place it inside the pan.

Then combine chilli garlic sauce and tomato sauce and place 2-3 tbsp on top of your pizza. Sprinkle half of the cheese on top. Then scatter chicken cubes, onion, capsicum on the top then again sprinkle the remaining cheese.

Cook pizza in a preheated oven, set on 230 oC until the pizza fully rises in about 5 minutes. Lower temperature to 180 oC and bake for another 5 minutes or until golden crust on top. Cut into slices and enjoy
