- 1/2 Tsp Basil Leaves
- 1/4 Tsp Oregano leaves
- 1/8 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil Light
Pizza Dough
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 2 Cup All-Purpose flour
- 3/4 Tsp Active Dry Yeast
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil Light
- 1 Tsp White Sugar
- 3/4 Cup Water Room Temperature
Toppings
- 12 Oz Chicken Breast
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1/4 Tsp Red Crushed Pepper
- 1/2 Tsp Italian Seasoning
- 1/4 Tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 Tsp Grated Parmesan
- 1 1/2 Cup Mexican Blended Cheese
- 1 Cup Pizza Sauce
Instructions
Preparing The Dough
- Mix all the ingredients for the dough, but only use 1 1/2 tbsp of light olive oil.
- Knead The Dough Until It's smooth and is a round ball, and rub 1/4 tbsp of oil on the dough.
Using A Stand Mixer (Optional)
- Put all the ingredients for the dough in your stand mixer, but only use 1 1/2 tbsp of light olive oil.
- Let the stand mixer run at a medium speed until the dough starts to form into a ball.
Kneading The Dough Again
- Place dough in a sealed container and let rest for 1 hour. After an hour, knead the dough into a round ball again, rub the dough with the rest of the oil, then place the pizza dough in a sealed container for another hour.
- Preheat the oven with an iron grid inside on the highest oven temperature for 30 minutes. This is 550 degrees for most ovens.
- Put the oven on high broil for 30 mins. Keep the oven on high broil for the pizza.
Using A Bread Maker For The Dough (Optional)
- The first thing you would want to do is to put the wet ingredients into the bread maker. Next, add the dry ingredients and turn the bread maker on the dough cycle.
- The mixture will be in the bread maker until the timer goes off.
Making The Pizza Sauce (Optional)
- Sauté onion in oil until light brown.
- Add the rest of the pizza sauce ingredients and cook for about 10 minutes on medium heat.
Cooking Your Chicken In The Air Fryer
- Cut the chicken breast into small pieces, and add the seasoning. Once the chicken is seasoned, put it in the air fryer at 375 degrees for 6 minutes.
Adding Toppings To Italian Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pizza
- Sprinkle some flour on a flat surface with parchment paper covering that surface and place the dough on the area with the flour. The flour will help prevent the dough from sticking to the surface.
- Flatten the pizza dough into a round 10 - 12 inch pizza by using your fingertips.
- I recommend using a rolling pin if you are creating a thin crust pizza, however, this method will get rid of the air in the dough. This is optional.
- Add the tomato sauce, then add your cheese and air fryer chicken to the prepared pizza dough.
Putting The Chicken Pizza In The Oven
- Put the pizza in the oven on top of the cast-iron skillet for 4-5 minutes. Make sure that the parchment paper is still under the pizza.
- The oven will stay on high broil until the pizza is ready. Also, make sure to use the pizza peel so that you do not burn yourself.
- Take the pizza out of the oven and cut the pizza.
If You Are Using A Cookie Sheet Instead Of A Cast Iron Skillet (Optional)
- Disclaimer: The pizza will not come out the same using the cookie sheet method, but the pizza will be delicious all the same.
- The oven will preheat at 450 degrees. After preheating, put the pizza inside and let it cook for 10 minutes.
