Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F, ensuring it’s hot for the chicken to bake evenly.
  2. Bake the Chicken: Marinate the organic chicken breast with the homemade jerk seasoning, then bake for 30-40 minutes until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let it rest for a few minutes before shredding.
  3. Roast the Bell Peppers: On a separate baking sheet, toss sliced baby bell peppers with olive oil and your selected spices. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  4. Prepare the Pizza Crust: In a mixer, combine warm water, raw honey, extra virgin olive oil, and rapid-rise yeast. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Gradually add the organic flour and dry ingredients, kneading until smooth, about 5 minutes. Shape the dough into a large circle and transfer it to a greased pizza pan.
  5. Assemble the Pizza: Mix the shredded jerk chicken with your BBQ sauce, then spread it over the prepared pizza crust. Layer on the mozzarella cheese, kale, roasted bell peppers, and herb roasted tomatoes. Brush the crust edges with olive oil for that golden finish!
  6. Bake the Pizza: Increase the oven temperature to 475°F and bake the pizza for 15-20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is a beautiful golden brown. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing.
