Our favourite Pizza

Really Easy Chicken Pizza

We really love pizza, (all nine of us!), and the fun we can have creating varied and delicious toppings is rivalled only by the delight in eating them. This is a recipe I created after becoming addicted to Chicken Cranberry Pizza at a restaurant. This Pizza is so delicious it is our family favourite. Everyone who eats it raves about it - both young and old. It is so easy to make that the older children can do it all by themselves. The younger children love putting the toppings on (when they're not eating them!). They all thoroughly enjoy making it, and often beg me "Can I make Chicken Cranberry Pizza tonight?"

Whenever I roast a chicken, I always roast two. Whatever is left over I pull off the bones and freeze in cup size lots, into resealable bags. You need one bag for two pizzas. I make my pizza bases in the breadmaker, on the "Dough" setting. It takes 5 seconds to dump all the ingredients in the breadpan, and 45 minutes for the breadmaker to mix it and rise it.

The Recipe

My Breadmaker is a Panasonic, and I put into it (in this order):  

Pizza Dough

•      3 t Surebake Yeast
•      3 1/2 c white or wholemeal flour
•      1 T honey or mollasses
•      1 t salt
•      1 1/4 c (or slightly less)  of warm water

Pizza Ingredients

•      Pizza dough or base (enough for two pizzas)
•      275g jar Cranberry Sauce (we prefer Jellied)
•      1 cup pre-cooked chicken
•      Grated cheese (to pile on as much as you like!)

Method

If using dough, roll out to make two pizza bases.

Spread half of the Cranberry Sauce onto each Pizza. Sprinkle the chicken evenly on top. Smother with cheese.

Bake at 180 C, or 375 F for about 20 minutes.

Enjoy this delicious pizza, along with some wholesome and stimulating family conversation around the dinner table, and delight your family's tastebuds while you nurture their souls.
