This pizza sauce can be made an stored for 2-3 days for this in a pan add oil and onions and cook until the onions are nicely caramelized then add the ginger garlic paste and saute till the smells goes away now add the tomatoes ( you can also blanch and grind then in the grinder to make a thick paste) cook the tomatoes until they are nice and soft then add ketchup and cook for 2 minutes then add the remaining spices and cook for another 5-10 mins until the desired consistency is reached.
For the tikka filling take the chicken and cut it into small cubes then add all the ingredients expect the oil in a pan with the flame off mix it for two to 3 minutes then add oil and turn the flame on, Cover it and cook for 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
After 1 hour check take the dough out it must have risen nicely and would feel light and airy. Put the dough on a flat surface sprinkle flour and roll it out evenly using a rolling pin as per your pan shape and size. Now put it in an oil greased pan and poke small holes using a fork so it cooks evenly and thoroughly. Now spread the sauce all over the dough, then add your chicken tikka filling top it with vegetables of your choice, then add cheese i used mozzarella cheese only but you can mix cheddar and mozzarella for extra cheesy pizza.Add olives on top and sprinkle some oregano and let it bake in a pre-heat oven for 15 minutes and 200 degree.
