Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1/2 cup cooked chicken pieces
  • 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup bell peppers sliced
  • 1/4 cup black olives
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 1 small onion thin slices
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients

  • Wash and slice all vegetables evenly. Cut chicken into small pieces. Keep toppings in separate bowls for easy use. This step makes your cooking faster and more organized later.

Preheat the Oven

  • Set your oven to 220°C and let it heat fully. A hot oven helps cook pizza quickly and evenly. This ensures crispy base and perfectly melted toppings.

Spread the Sauce

  • Take your pizza base and spread pizza sauce evenly using a spoon. Do not add too much sauce. Keep a thin layer for balanced flavor and texture.

Add Cheese Layer

  • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Make sure it covers the base evenly. Cheese helps hold all toppings together and gives rich taste.

Add Toppings

  • Place chicken, pepperoni, vegetables, and olives over cheese. Spread them evenly so every bite has good flavor. Do not overload the pizza to avoid soggy texture.

Season the Pizza

  • Sprinkle oregano and chili flakes on top. Drizzle a little olive oil for extra flavor. This step adds aroma and gives your pizza a delicious finish.

Bake the Pizza

  • Place pizza in oven and bake for 12–15 minutes. Cook until cheese melts and edges turn golden brown. Remove carefully and let it cool slightly before slicing.

Notes

  • Use fresh vegetables for better taste
  • Try paneer instead of chicken for vegetarian option
  • Add sweet corn for extra flavor
  • Use cheddar cheese for stronger taste
  • Keep toppings balanced for perfect texture
