4. In measuring cup, combine water, olive oil and honey; stir to dissolve honey.
5. Stir water mixture into flour mixture until ball forms.
6. On floured surface (use about 1/4 cup flour), knead dough 3 to 4 minutes or until resilient and no longer sticky, working in flour from counter as necessary to prevent sticking.
7. Cover dough with inverted mixing bowl; let stand 10 minutes.
8. Meanwhile, lightly grease 14-inch pizza pan; dust with cornmeal.
9. On lightly floured surface, roll dough into 15-inch round (dough will shrink slightly when lifted).

12. Bake 8 minutes.
13. Sprinkle with cheese; top with chorizo and green olives.

15. Chorizo is a highly seasoned pork sausage; for this recipe, use the smoked links.
16. Chorizo can be found in the meat department of the grocery store.
17. If you can't find it, substitute any spicy or garlicky smoked sausage.
