Steps:
- Prepare dough: In a measuring cup, combine warm water (115-120°F) with active dry yeast and sugar. Allow yeast to proof.
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer, add 2 1/2 cups of all purpose flour and salt. When yeast is ready, turn mixer on low and slowly drizzle in liquid. Increase mixer speed and continue mixing until dough comes together. Add additional flour as needed until dough no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. Transfer to a lightly greased bowl, cover and allow to rise in a warm location for at least one hour.
- In a medium skillet, cook 6-7 slices of bacon (or more as desired). Finely chop of half of the bacon for the pesto sauce, while reserving the rest for topping. In the same skillet, cook chicken breast over medium heat until cooked through. Shred chicken and set aside.
- Add basil leaves and garlic to a food processor. Blend together until only fine pieces remain. Add Parmesan cheese. Blend until combined. With food processor running on low, slowly drizzle in enough olive oil until a spreadable consistency is reached. Transfer mixture to a small bowl. Stir in bacon.
- Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil. Gently stretch and shape dough to desired size. Add to a cold oven. Heat oven to 425°F. When oven is ready, remove pizza crust.

CHICKEN BACON PESTO GRILLED PIZZA
Steps:
- Lightly oil the tomatoes and place on the grill beforehand by cooking them for a few minutes, turning quickly before they explode. Reserve.
- Oil a heavy upturned sheet pan with extra virgin olive oil and place the dough on the oil pushing first with fingertips and then stretch with your flat hand to make it into a flat, thin, football-shaped dough measuring approximately 10 inches by 5 inches.
- Add another tablespoon of oil on the top and flip the dough over, pressing your fingertips in the dough to negate bubbles from forming.
- Place the dough on the grill for 30 to 40 seconds, watching closely for hot spots and turning if needed.
- When the dough is marked with grill marks and golden brown, turn it over.
- Quickly squirt the pesto on first, then brush.
- Place all the ingredients on fast with cheese first, then close the lid to the grill. If you are on a restaurant grill, an upturned pizza pan works good to get the cheese to melt.
- Grill from 30 to 60 seconds, watching closely for burning.
- Remove from the grill and sprinkle the sea salt and the pine nuts.
- Cut and serve.
