Ingredients:
For the Dough:

- 1 packet **instant yeast**

- 1 1/4 cups **warm water**

- 3 cups **all-purpose flour**

- 1 teaspoon **salt**

- 2 tablespoons **olive oil**

- 1 teaspoon **sugar**

For the Toppings:

- 1 cup **barbecue sauce**

- 2 cups **cooked chicken breast**, shredded

- 1 cup **red onion**, thinly sliced

- 1 cup **bell pepper**, diced

- 2 cups **mozzarella cheese**, shredded

- 1/4 cup **fresh cilantro**, chopped

- **Cornmeal** for dusting

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:

   - In a small bowl, dissolve the instant yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.

   - In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, olive oil, and sugar. Pour in the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms.

   - Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place it in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.

2. Preheat the Oven:

   - Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

3. Assemble the Pizza:

   - Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 2 equal portions. Roll out each portion into a circle on a floured surface.

   - Sprinkle cornmeal on a pizza peel or baking sheet, then transfer the rolled-out dough onto it.

   - Spread barbecue sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

   - Top with shredded chicken, sliced red onion, diced bell pepper, and shredded mozzarella cheese.

4. Bake the Pizza:

   - Carefully transfer the assembled pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.

   - Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.

   - Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped cilantro over the hot pizza.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   - Slice the pizza and serve hot, savoring every delicious bite.

Tip for Delicious Pizza:

For added flavor, drizzle a little extra barbecue sauce over the hot pizza before serving.
