Instructions
- Dough: Stir together 2 1/4 cups flour, yeast and salt in large bowl. Make well in center of mixture. Stir warm water with sugar; pour into center of well.
- Working from outer edges of bowl, mix flour mixture into water until shaggy dough starts to form. Turn out onto lightly floured work surface. Knead for 8 to 10 minutes, adding flour as needed, until dough is smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand for 15 to 30 minutes or until doubled in volume. Omit if using Pizza Yeast.
- Pizza: Preheat oven 425?F (220?C) and set rack on bottom position. On lightly floured surface, roll out dough into 12-inch (30 cm) round, about 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick. Transfer to lightly oiled pizza pan or large baking sheet.
- Spoon tomato sauce evenly over dough, leaving 1/2-inch (1 cm) border all around. Sprinkle with cheese; top with chicken, onions, and red and green peppers. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbling.
Tip: Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
