Equipment

  • blender
  • Pizza Pan
  • oven
  • Mixing Bowl
  • dough hook
  • Saucepan

Ingredients
  

For the Crust

  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1.5 cups white flour
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

For the Sauce

  • ⅔ cup brown rice syrup or corn syrup
  • 6 chiles e.g., Fresno peppers
  • 1-2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar

For the Pineapple Pico de Gallo

  • 1 pineapple cored (about 2–3 cups diced)
  • 1 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1 cup red onion diced
  • 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
  • lime juice to taste
  • salt to taste
  • honey to taste

For the Pizza

  • 2 cups shredded cheese e.g., Queso Chihuahua
  • 1 lb. grilled chicken breast thinly sliced

Instructions
 

Crust Preparation

  • Combine the sugar, water, and yeast in a bowl and let rest until the yeast is frothy, about 5 minutes. Add to the flours and salt and mix to form a dough. Knead for a few minutes (2-3 minutes on low speed using a dough hook on a stand mixer) and set aside in a warm spot to rest for about 30 minutes.

Sauce Preparation

  • Puree the sauce ingredients together in a blender until smooth or mostly smooth. Transfer to a saucepan over medium high heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes or until thick. Season generously with salt.

Pico de Gallo Preparation

  • Toss all the pico de gallo ingredients together until well combined. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Assembling the Pizza

  • Divide the dough in half. Roll out each piece into a thin crust about ½ inch thick or less, and transfer to a pizza pan. Poke with a fork, bake for 10 minutes, and remove from oven. Crusts should be golden and partially baked. Top with sauce, chicken, pineapple, and cheese. Return to oven and bake for another 10 minutes or until everything is warm and bubbly. Top with additional fresh cilantro and red pepper flakes.

Notes

The sauce will taste REALLY spicy at first but once it sits for a while and then eventually gets baked under all those toppings, it will be just the right amount of heat! If you are worried about the spice level, take out the ribs and seeds of the peppers.
