Steemfoods Steemit Engagement Challenge Contest 4: Spicy chicken recipe, my favorite /by @madilyn02
Pizza recipe! I'm sure this particular contest most be difficult for most Africans since not everyone eats pizza here, or to put it correctly, not everyone can afford to eat pizza.
Purchasing pizza here is expensive for many people here. Even though few are privileged to enjoy it. I can count how many times I've eaten pizza, and it wasn't until I turned 16 years did I start eating pizza.It takes about 33-34 steem (5000 naira) to get a pack of pizza and that's a lot of money... Africans consider why will be able to fill the hunger needs of the family and so they decide to put the money into other things to get more benefit.
Pizza is a very delicious snack that is enjoyed by many. We loove pizza and so most times we look beyond the expensive prize and make sure we buy one.
Since buying the pizza is expensive, we thought of learning how to make it at home and this idea was brought up but @wizzyboy3 who is always eager to make recipes for us haha. From the video he downloaded from YouTube,my aunt saw that the pizza was easy to make and we practiced it at home. And that day we were able to eat the pizza at home and I also learnt from the practical.
That is why for this contest, I have made one exclusively for it and will like to share it with you:
Spicy Chicken pizza recipe
The recipe I made is the spicy chicken pizza and that is the only one I know how to make lolz. But I have eaten other pizza recipes and they all taste amazing.
I'm choosing this one as my favorite since I only know how to prepare it and it is practical for us
Here below I share the ingredients I used for it
| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Plain flour | 2 cups |
| Instant yeast | 1 teaspoon |
| Sugar | 1 tablespoon |
| Salt | 1 teaspoon |
| Olive oil | 1 tablespoon |
| Warm Water | 0.75 cup |
For the toppings
- Cheese
- Green pepper
- Red bell pepper
- Fresh tomatoes
- Chicken breast meat
Toppings should be light in order not to weigh the pizza down.
Preparation
Below are the processes I took in preparing the pizza:
 | I Mixed sugar and yeast in 3/4 cup of warm water |
|---|---|
 | Sieved 2 cups of flour in a different bowl, 1 teaspoon of salt and two Tbs of vegetable oil |
 | Pour in the sugar and flour mixture and stir continuously to form a dough |
 | After kneading the dough for about 10 minutes, I applied vegetable oil round it and covered it to rest for 1 hour. |
While waiting for 1 hour for he dough, I started to prepare things for the toppings. I started with making the tomato ketchup for it:
For that I only made use of the tomato paste and dry pepper
First step is to put the tomato paste in a plate and then the pepper is added to it
 |  |
|---|---|
 | stir very well and it's ready |
After this part I also prepared the chicken breast.
 | I seasoned the chicken with seasoning cubes, pepper and chicken spice. |
|---|---|
 | After spicing the chicken, we do pan frying for it for three minutes |
Soon I was done with preparations for the toppings. And the dough was ready so I kneaded it for about 5 minutes more and spread it in an oiled pan to place the toppings. Below I leave you a video of how I did the toppings:
The oven is preheated for 30 minutes before
putting the pizza dough in it and it takes about five minutes to get ready.
After five minutes it was ready and I brought it out from the oven...
 | ready to enjoy it |

And my favorite spicy chicken pizza recipe was ready!
So making the pizza at home saves money, it is far more cheaper than purchasing it from the mall...All the ingredients costs only about 12 STEEM. The most expensive being the cheese and it is also hard to get it around here except in special shopping malls.
Kindly note that this is my first trial of making pizza and so it might look less perfect. And there is always room for improvements...
I invite the following friends to come and join and share their favorite pizza recipe:

Hello my friend, I sincerely wish you could try my pizza, I enjoyed making it and then t turned out to be delicious.

Hola @madilym02; he notado que en Nigeria le colocan pollo a todas las pizzas,lo he visto en publicaciones de aquí. aquí le podemos colocar pero es muy opcional y las personas no las prefieren así, más bien con queso y jamón que es más barato.
Hello friend, well yes we love to use chicken in the pizza, but we also have other ones without chicken. Here people prefer the one with chicken more, and cheese is also added to it.
I'm sure you people's pizza recipe will be great too and even more better it's cheaper
This is so beautiful and yummy, I can see you put on a lot of energy to come out with this beautiful pizza, you are correct purchasing Pizza is very costly so preparing it your self will serve a lot of money and it will go round the family.
It's very true, thank God for this contest we have learnt how to do it and we will be making it on our own
