Ingredients

FOR CRUST:
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
1 c warm water
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 1/2 to 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
TOPPINGS:
sweet baby rays honey barbecue sauce
1 c left over roasted chicken, shredded
1/2 c onion, sliced
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 c monterey jack cheese, shredded
1/2 c mozzerella cheese, shredded
1/4 c gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
2 slices cooked bacon, diced
fresh cilantro leaves - optional

Steps:

1. Stir sugar in warm water. Add yeast. In a separate bowl combine 2 1/2 cups flour, salt, garlic powder dry oregano. I use a kitchen aid mixer and the dough hook add olive oil. Add flour and spice mixture and additional flour until dough pulls away from mixing bowl. Cover and let rise 1 hour or until doubled.
2. While dough is rising I prepare my toppings. Cook onion with 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium skillet on medium high until done. Shred cheeses.
3. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray 14" pizza pan with cooking spray. Spread dough into pan. Spread sauce over pizza dough. Then chicken, bacon and veggies. Then Cheeses. Bake 15 to 20 minutes.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh mozzarella and creamy gorgonzola cheeses, succulent chicken, and a flavorful pizza sauce make a world of difference.
Roll out the pizza dough thinly so it cooks evenly. You want a crispy crust that can hold up to the toppings without getting soggy.
Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza difficult to cook and may result in a soggy crust.
Bake the pizza at a high temperature to get a crispy crust. A pizza stone or baking steel will help you achieve a perfectly cooked pizza.
Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the cheese to set and prevent the toppings from sliding off.

Conclusion:

Chicken and gorgonzola pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy crust, succulent chicken, creamy gorgonzola, and flavorful sauce, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give this chicken and gorgonzola pizza a try. You won't be disappointed!
