Steps:
- For sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients with 1/2 cup water in a medium bowl; set aside for flavors to develop while making crust. Freeze remaining paste .
- For crusts: Combine 2 cups of flour with the dry yeast, sugar and salt. Add the water and oil and mix until well blended (about 1 minute). Gradually add enough remaining flour slowly, until a soft, sticky dough ball is formed.
- Knead for about 4 minutes, on a floured surface, until dough is smooth and elastic. Add more flour, if needed. (If using RapidRise® Yeast, let dough rest, covered, for 10 minutes.)
- Divide dough in half. Pat each half (with floured hands) into a 12-inch greased pizza pan OR roll dough to fit pans.
- For pizzas: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Top crusts with sauce, pepperoni and cheese.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until crusts are browned and cheese is bubbly. For best results, rotate pizza pans between top and bottom oven racks halfway through baking.

PICANTE CHICKEN AND PEPPERS
It's so easy to create quick and tasty dishes with chicken. I created this one night when I had peppers that needed to be used up. I needed something quick, and to please the family there had to be some heat. We use medium or hot picante sauce, but you could use mild.

SOPPRESSATA PIZZA

Yield Makes topping for 8 individual pizzas
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- In a bowl, mix Romano and fontina. Make pizza crust. While second side of each crust is grilling, spread 1/8 cheese mixture over cooked side of each crust. Top with 1/8 peppers. Dollop 1/8 cup ricotta over each crust. Arrange 5 slices soppressata on each pizza. Sprinkle each with 1 1/2 tsp parsley. Rotate 3 to 4 minutes until bottom is evenly golden brown.
Tips:
- For a crispy crust, preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible and use a pizza stone or baking sheet.
- If you don't have a pizza stone or baking sheet, you can use a cast iron skillet or even a baking pan.
- To make sure your pizza cooks evenly, rotate it halfway through the baking time.
- If you're using fresh mozzarella cheese, make sure to pat it dry before using it on your pizza. This will help to prevent the pizza from becoming soggy.
- Be creative with your toppings! You can use anything from pepperoni and sausage to vegetables and fruits.
Conclusion:
Picante pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its spicy and flavorful sauce, gooey cheese, and crispy crust, it's sure to be a hit at your next party or get-together.
