3 to 3-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3 teaspoons quick-rise yeast |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup buttermilk |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 tablespoon cider vinegar |

2 cups cubed cooked chicken |
1 cup julienned sweet red pepper |
2 cups (12 ounces) shredded pizza cheese blend |
