Activate the Yeast: In a large bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in warm water. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the bowl with the flour. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.

Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 8-10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Add flour or water as needed.

First Rise: Lightly grease a large bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled.

Punch Down the Dough: Gently punch down the dough to release the air.

Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.

Make the Chili Garlic Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped red chilies, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.

Cook the Chicken: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a pizza stone in the oven while it preheats (if using).

Prepare the Pizza Dough: Divide the dough in half (or smaller portions). On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of the dough into a 12-inch circle (or desired shape).

Transfer the Dough: Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza peel dusted with cornmeal or flour, or directly onto a baking sheet.

Add the Sauce: Spread a generous layer of chili garlic sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust.

Add the Cheese: Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella cheese over the sauce, followed by the provolone cheese (if using).

Add the Chicken: Distribute the cooked chili garlic chicken evenly over the cheese.

Bake the Pizza: Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone (if using) or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, thinly sliced green onions, and sesame seeds (if using). Serve immediately.

Repeat: Repeat steps 12-18 with the remaining dough and toppings.
