Chicken sweet corn pizza

I like to bake our own pizza. The variations are endless. Now I would like to share with you my chicken and sweet corn topped pizza. I make the dough in my bread maker, and while it works, I can prepare the toppings comfortably. Most of the times I use tomato base, but not this time. Are you prepared to taste something different?

Shopping list:

-
100 ml milk
2 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoon salt
400 g plain flour
7 g instant yeast
1 chicken breast fillet (one piece for one pizza)
Half cup of sour cream
2 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1 cup of sweet corn
100 g grated mozzarella
100 g grated mature or extra mature cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon pepper


Equipment:
-
- Bread maker (if you don't have bread maker then a big mixing bowl)
- Pastry board or clean flat surface
- Rolling pin
- Non-sticking pizza platter
- Wok or pan


Dough
-
I put all the ingredients in the bread maker in the given order. I used to bake pizza before I had this masterpiece of Cookworks', so if you don't have a bread maker, just put the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

Ingredients for two very thin pizza dough (mine is round and 31 cm in diameter):

100 ml lukewarm water
100 ml lukewarm milk
1 tablespoon oil (I use olive oil)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
400 g plain flour
7 g instant yeast

I drop all the ingredients in our bread maker to knead the dough. If you don't have one, put the ingredients in a large bowl and knead it for 5 minutes at least then leave it in a warm place covered with a table cloth until it doubles in size.

I use the dough programme of my bread maker. It takes 90 minutes to prepare the dough. In the meantime I prepare the topping.

As only my husband, my 2 year old son and I eat pizza, I use only half of the dough and put the rest in the refrigerator wrapped in a plastic bag (the one I use to put things in the freezer). I use it next day for another pizza.


Topping
-
As we like to taste different types of pizza, this one is not a usual tomato based pizza but it's sour cream based. I like the Sainsbury's own brand Sour cream, the one with purple cap.

Ingredients (for one pizza):

1 chicken breast fillet (I use 1 piece of fillet, not one pair)
Half cup of sour cream
2 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1 cup of sweet corn
100 g grated mozzarella
100 g grated mature or extra mature cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon oil

I cut the chicken breast in small pieces and season it with salt and pepper. I put the oil in my wok and roast it (a normal pan is good as well). I put it apart.
I mix the sour cream with the chopped garlic and put it apart.


Pizza
-
When the bread maker finishes the programme I take out the dough, put half of it in the refrigerator. I

put some plain flour on the pastry board and stretch the dough to the form and size of the pizza platter. I roll the dough on the rolling pin and place it on the platter. I set right its edges with my hand then spread on it the sour cream with garlic. Then I drop on it the chicken and the sweet corn. I use frozen corn and I put it right from the freezer. Then I top them with the grated mozzarella and cheddar and put it in the preheated oven.

I have an electric oven and I bake the pizza at 180 C for 16 minutes. I think it tastes great. I recommend if you like sour cream.
