CHICKY PIZZA
Equipment Needed:
- Standard or industrial mixer (optional), or hands
- Glowen Raptor or Dragon
- Glowen IR thermometer
- Glowen wooden peel
- Glowen turning peel
- Glowen cutting wheel
Ingredients:
For the Dough:
- 480 grams of lukewarm water
- 750 grams of bread flour
- 1 tablespoon (15 grams) active dried yeast / 10 grams instant dried yeast / 30 grams fresh yeast
- 1 tablespoon (18 grams) fine sea salt
- 20 grams of extra-virgin olive oil
- 100 grams of semolina or rice flour, for dusting
For the Toppings:
- Garlic cream (bought or homemade)
- Mozzarella
- Fried chicken bits
- Mushrooms
- Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions for 5 Dough Balls:
1. Prepare the Dough:
- In a large bowl, add half the remaining flour and the yeast mixture and mix well.
- Then add the salt and remaining flour.
- Dump the mixture onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Drizzle the bottom of the bowl with olive oil, place the dough back into the bowl, and dash a bit more olive oil on top.
2. Let the Dough Rise:
- Cover the bowl with a dishcloth and set it in the sun or another warm place for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the dough has doubled in size — whichever comes first.
3. Divide the Dough:
- Divide the bulk-proofed dough into five 250-gram or four 330-gram pieces.
- Ball up the dough, ensuring the tops of the balls are smooth.
- Brush each ball with olive oil or warm water, cover it with a dishcloth, and rest in a warm place for 15 to 20 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat Your Oven:
- Preheat your Glowen Raptor or Dragon pizza oven to 450°C (842°F). Measure the temperature at the middle of the stone using a Glowen IR thermometer.
Prepare the Pizza:
- Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness and shape.
- Spread the garlic cream sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the garlic cream sauce.
- Evenly distribute the fried chicken bits and sliced mushrooms on top of the cheese.
- Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the toppings.
- Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake according to the pizza dough instructions, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.
- Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil over the hot pizza before serving.
- Enjoy your delicious Chicky pizza
