Ingredients

• Pizza dough - 200 grams
• Cooked chicken breast, sliced - 150 grams
• Red bell pepper, sliced - 1 medium
• Green bell pepper, sliced - 1 medium
• Onion, sliced - 1 medium
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Fajita seasoning - 1 tablespoon
• Shredded mozzarella cheese - 150 grams
• Shredded cheddar cheese - 50 grams
• Fresh cilantro, chopped - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F).
2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell peppers, sautéing for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
3. Add the sliced chicken breast and fajita seasoning to the skillet, mixing well. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the chicken is heated through and the vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Spread a thin layer of the fajita mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the fajita mixture.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
8. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Top with fresh chopped cilantro before slicing and serving.
