Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Warm water - 120 milliliters
• Active dry yeast - 5 grams
• Sugar - 5 grams
• Salt - 3 grams
• Olive oil - 15 milliliters
• Halal chicken breast - 150 grams (diced)
• Sweet soy sauce - 50 milliliters
• Bell pepper - 1 medium (sliced)
• Red onion - 1 small (sliced)
• Mozzarella cheese - 100 grams (shredded)
• Spring onions - 2 (chopped)
• Sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
4. While the dough is rising, marinate the diced halal chicken in sweet soy sauce for about 15 minutes.
5. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).
6. Once the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness (about 1 cm thick).
7. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
8. Spread the marinated chicken evenly over the dough, followed by bell pepper slices, red onion, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
10. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds before slicing and serving.
