Chicken Salsa Pizza

- Italian Bread Pizza Crust (recipe below)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 12oz. jar salsa
- 1 cup cubed chicken

Place dough on ungreased 12 inch pizza pan (or cookie sheet). Sprinkle with 3/4 cups cheese. Top with salsa, chicken & remaining cheese. Bake at 450 for 8-10** min or until cheese is bubbly.

**Crust needs a lot longer. May want to cook crust for 15-20 min, then cook with toppings.

Italian Bread Pizza Dough:
- 2 tsp. yeast
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 1 cup warm water
- 2/3 cup flour
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tsp. salt

Combine yeast, sugar & water. Let sit 5 min. Add 2 cups flour, oil and salt and beat at low speed for 1 min. Add additional flour until dough leaves sides of bowl. Increase speed to medium and beat 5 min. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit 30 min. Punch down and let sit for 10 min. Roll out, add toppings and bake at 450-475 for 25 min.
