Ingredients
Pizza dough
- 350 g flour
- 245 g water
- 35 g sourdough starter
- 7 g salt
Pizza Topper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup mushroom
- 1 cup frozen chicken nugget / fillet / tender
- mozarella cheese
Instructions
- The day before, activate the sourdough starter until it doubles in size. I used approximately 20g of scrap starter from the jar and maintained a 1:1:1 ratio of flour and water.
- Mix the sourdough starter with 245g of lukewarm water and 7g of salt. Stir well, then add 350g of flour. Use a spatula to combine the ingredients until there are no dry bits remaining. Cover the dough with a damp towel for 10 minutes. Gently fold the dough until feels tension, and leave the dough with the smooth side up. Allow the dough to rest at room temperature for approximately 4 hours. Afterward, transfer the bowl with the dough to the refrigerator until 1 hour before you are ready to bake. You can leave the dough in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- When you're ready to make the pizza, take the dough out of the fridge about 1 hour before you plan to use it. Also, take out the frozen fried chicken nuggets/fillets/tenders to thaw at room temperature so it is easy to cut into bite sizes. Prepare a sheet pan by coating it with olive oil. Stretch and fold the dough, then place it on top of the pan. Cover it with plastic wrap (lightly greased with olive oil to prevent sticking). Return to periodically stretching the dough every 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- When the dough has reached your desired size, cut the frozen chicken into bite-sized pieces. Spread marinara sauce evenly over the dough, then place the chicken pieces (flesh side down, crust side up), mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese on top. Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and place it on a wire rack to ensure a crispy pizza bottom. Allow it to cool for about 5 minutes, then enjoy!
