Chicken Burrito Pizza

Pizza Dough

1/2 c bread flour
1/2 c whole wheat flour
1/4 t active dry yeast
1/4 t salt
1/2 t sugar
6 T cold water

In large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients, then create well in center and add the water. Using your hands, gently combine dough for about 3-4 minutes or until it comes together.
Move dough to lightly floured surface, knead for 10 min. or until firm and smooth. Form into ball. Cover with clean dish towel; let rest for 5 min.
Using rolling pin, roll out dough to form 11-in circle; place on round metal pizza pan with small holes so dough just reaches but doesn't overlap edges. (We used a baking stone.) Let rest for 45 min. before adding toppings.

Pizza Hut Pizza

This recipe comes from one of the coolest websites ever: www.cdkitchen.com and is pretty darn close to the real thing! We've made it twice now and it definitely helps to have actual cake pans to cook in, but we've used frying pans too...you just have to keep an eye on each pizza to guess when each is done.

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/3 cup Warm water (105F)
1/4 cup Non-fat dry milk
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4 cups Flour
1 tablespoon Sugar
1 package Dry yeast
2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for dough)
9 ounces Vegetable oil (3 oz. per pan)
Butter flavored cooking spray
***Sauce: ***
1 can (8 Ounce size) Tomato Sauce
1 teaspoon Dry Oregano
1/2 teaspoon Marjoram
1/2 teaspoon Dry Basil
1/2 teaspoon Garlic salt

PREPARATION:
Put yeast, sugar, salt, and dry milk in a large (2 qt.) bowl. Add water and stir to mix well. Allow to sit for two minutes. Add oil and stir again. Add flour and stir until dough forms and flour is absorbed.

Turn out on to a flat surface and knead for about 10 minutes. Divide dough into three balls. In three 9" cake pans, put 3 Oz. of oil in each making sure it is spread evenly. Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball to about a 9" circle. Place in cake pans.

Spray the outer edge of dough with cooking spray. Cover with a plate. Place in warm area and allow to rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Sauce:

Combine ingredients and let sit for 1 hour.

For Each Nine Inch Pizza: 1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F 2. Spoon 1/3 cup sauce on dough and spread to within 1" of edge. 3. Distribute 1 1/2 Oz. shredded mozzarella cheese on sauce. 4. Place toppings of your choice in this order: Pepperoni or Ham Vegetables Meats (cooked ground sausage or beef) 5. Top with 3 Oz. mozzarella cheese 6. Cook until cheese is bubbling and outer crust is brown.

BBQ Chicken Pizza

This picture was before the pizza was actually cooked....so just picture it warm and delicious with a golden brown crust!

1 pizza crust (homemade is much better than store-bought)

2 c. cooked, shredded chicken

1/2 c. BBQ sauce (I use "Sweet Baby Rays"--delicious)

8 oz. shredded monterey jack cheese

1 large zucchini, thinly sliced

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

mozzaralla (opt.)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Grease the baking sheet and set aside (or a pizza stone works wonders)

Combine the chicken and BBQ sauce, spread onto the pizza crust leaving a 1 inch border of crust uncovered

Sprinkle the cheese, then zucchini, then onion

Season generously with salt and pepper. The recipe didn't call for any mozzarella, but I sprinkled some mozzarella on as the last ingredient (maybe 1/2 c. or more)

Bake until golden brown and cheese is melted (about 20 minutes).

Cut and serve immediately!
