Malai Boti Pizza
This recipe guides you through making a delicious Malai Boti Pizza from scratch. Starting with a soft, pliable dough, the pizza is then topped with succulent Malai Boti chicken (creamy marinated chicken pieces), fresh vegetables, and melted cheese, all baked to golden perfection. The dough is prepared by mixing warm milk, yeast, flour, oil, salt, sugar, and egg, gradually adding warm water to form a soft consistency. It's then left to rise before being punched down and used as the pizza base. The chicken is typically marinated in a creamy, spicy mixture before being cooked and spread over the pizza, creating a flavorful and satisfying meal.
