Oh My... Pizza Pie!!! BBQ Ranch Chicken Pizza

Here's some good news! if you follow my blog and made the awesome pretzels, you are one step ahead of the crowd! I used the same dough recipe to make homemade pizza dough! I will post the recipe again in case you missed it! This time.. we rolled it out onto our pizza stone! I would highly suggest you pick one of these little gems up at the store next time.. they are amazing! we made sure to poke the pizza with a fork so that the air would be able to escape(shout out to Hunter) we baked it for 10-15 minutes with no topping so that it would be good and crispy! Once it game out, we slathered it with awesome KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce... We cheated and purchased a rotisserie chicken at the store.. shredded the meat and had it waiting in a hot tub of BBQ sauce! After making sure my ADHD self had the sauce perfect, we piled on the chicken.. literally.. we piled it on! we used a whole chicken for one pizza.. then came my favorite part.. the cheese! We used shredded mozzarella! WOW.. We put that puppy back into the oven and salivated for the next 20 minutes while it baked! I think we each checked the oven window 4 times while it was baking. Below is the finished product.. Enjoy!!! I almost forgot.. you drizzle the top of the pizza with Ranch dressing when you are ready to eat! I could only eat one piece because it was so big! for those of you who read this first.. i am an dummy for not putting the dough recipe.. duh~

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups warm water
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 1 package active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
• 3 ounces unsalted butter, melted
• 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 4 1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour
• Vegetable oil
• 3 quarts water
• 3/4 cup baking soda
• 1 whole egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon cold water
• Coarse sea salt

Directions:

1. Combine the water, sugar, yeast, and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix with the dough hook until combined. Let sit for 5 minutes.
2. Add the salt and flour and mix on low speed until combined. Increase the speed to medium and continue kneading until the dough is smooth and begins to pull away from the side of the bowl, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the dough appears too wet, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time. 
3. Remove the dough from the bowl, place on a flat surface and knead into a ball with your hands.
4. Oil a bowl with vegetable oil, add the dough and turn to coat with the oil.
5. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm spot until the dough doubles in size, about 1 hour.
6. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
7. Bring the water to a boil in a small roasting pan over high heat and add the baking soda.
8. Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a flat surface. 
9. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 ounces each. 
10. Roll each piece into a long rope and shape into the lengths or shapes that you want (sticks are easy and tasty).  
11. Boil the pretzels in the water solution in batches. Boil for about 30 seconds. Remove with a large slotted spoon. 
12. Place pretzels on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Make sure they are not touching. 
13. Brush the tops with the egg wash and season liberally with the salt. 
14. Place into the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown.
15. Add additional toppings immediately after they come out of the oven.
