Instructions

  • For making the pizza dough, whisk together all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the olive oil and water and bring the dough together using a spatula. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Grease a 13x9 inch pan well with olive oil. Transfer the dough onto the pan, spread it equally on the pan and allow it to rest for another 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce by melting the butter in a saucepan. Fry the flour for a minute, add the remaining ingredients and cook till thickened. Allow it to cool completely.
  • For cooking the chicken, heat olive oil in a saucepan. Add all the chicken and all the spice powders and toss up well to coat. Cook on low flame, stirring occasionally till the chicken is done. Cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Quickly spread the white sauce all over the pizza. Top with the chicken, olives and sprinkle the cheese all over.
  • Bake for 25 minutes. Take out, rest for five minutes and enjoy!
