1 x recipe Pizza Dough (see recipe)
1/4 lb skinned boned uncooked chicken cut small cubes
to make 4 cups
----------------- MARINADE ----------------
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tbl fresh lime juice
2 lrg jalapeno peppers trimmed, minced
1 x garlic clove peeled, minced
1 tbl chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Kosher salt to taste
----------------- TOPPINGS ----------------
2 cup grated mozzarella cheese - (8 oz)
2 cup grated Fontina cheese - (8 oz)
6 x Roma tomatoes - (abt 1 lb) ends trimmed,
cut into thin slices
1 cup cubed Asian eggplant sauteed or grilled
1 x recipe Caramelized Onions (see recipe)
Instructions:
Instructions: Marinate the chicken: Arrange the cubed chicken in a shallow medium bowl and toss with the marinade ingredients, using 1/4 cup of olive oil. Season lightly with salt and let marinate for about 1 hour, refrigerated.

In a skillet or saute pan large enough to hold the chicken in one layer, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Remove the chicken from the marinade with a slotted spoon. Saute the chicken just to brown on all sides. Do not overcook. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Place a pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll out the Pizza Dough to make two 10-inch rounds, with the outer border a little thicker than the inner circle. Transfer dough to wooden pizza paddles or cookie sheets.

Layer the pizza: Start with the mozzarella, then the Fontina, tomato, eggplant, Caramelized Onions, cooked chicken, and peppers. Slide the pizza onto the baking stone. Bake until the pizza is nicely browned, 10 to 12 minutes.

Transfer the pizza to a firm surface and cut into slices with a pizza cutter or very sharp knife. Serve immediately.

This recipe yields two 10-inch or four 8-inch pizzas for 6 to 8 servings.

Comments: This has always been one of the most popular recipes at my Cafes. Its a wonderful, hearty pizza, spicy and delicious, perfect for dinner for a family.

Wine Recommendation: Although it"s hard to see pizza with anything other than beer, there are some great wine pairings that you might like to try. Bonny Doons Ca del Solo and Edmunds St. Johns Port o Call reds are perfect, and inexpensive, partners for this Spicy Chicken Pizza.
