    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a bowl, combine the lukewarm water, sugar, and dry yeast. Let it stand for 10 minutes to activate the yeast.

    2

    In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and palm oil. Knead until you have a smooth, elastic dough.

    3

    Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

    4

    Preheat your oven to 430°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    5

    On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.

    6

    Spread tomato sauce evenly over the pizza base. Sprinkle with minced garlic and oregano.

    7

    Sprinkle with grated mozzarella cheese, then top with the cooked, shredded chicken, suya spice mix, and sliced bell pepper.

    8

    Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

    9

    Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh cilantro, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
