Begin by making pizza dough - combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in large bowl.

Let yeast mixture sit for 5 minutes until foamy and activated.

Add flour, olive oil, and salt to yeast mixture and mix until dough forms.

Knead dough on floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Place dough in oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled.

Meanwhile, season halal chicken with all spices and marinate for 20 minutes.

Heat olive oil in large skillet and cook chicken until fully cooked through.

Shred cooked chicken and toss with half of the BBQ sauce mixture.

For caramelized onions, heat butter and oil in pan over medium-low heat.

Add sliced onions with salt and cook slowly for 20-25 minutes until golden.

Add brown sugar to onions in last 5 minutes of cooking time.

Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C) and place pizza stone inside if using.

Divide risen dough in half and roll each piece into 12-inch circles.

Transfer dough to pizza stone or large baking sheets brushed with oil.

Spread remaining BBQ sauce evenly over both pizza bases leaving 1-inch border.

Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheeses evenly over sauce layer.

Distribute BBQ chicken pieces evenly across both pizzas.

Add caramelized onions and fresh red onion slices on top.

Sprinkle corn kernels and jalapeño slices if using for extra flavor.

Bake pizzas for 12-15 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.

Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with fresh cilantro and chives.

Let pizzas cool for 3-5 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Season with black pepper and serve while hot and crispy.
