NIGERIAN CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE PIZZA

NIGERIAN CHICKEN AND SAUSAGE PIZZA CUT IN PIECES FOR SERVING

Our Nigerian chicken and sausage pizza is made with a blend of International and Nigerian ingredients. While the dough, sugar, salt, tomatoes and others are International ingredients, the yummy Nigerian seasoning cubes are one ingredient that’s added to almost all Nigerian cooking. 

Yaji powder is loved by Nigerian and found in our spicy meals. I made this chicken and sausage pizza from scratch in less than no time. It was very delicious and full of nutrition.

After clearing the pizza, the girls tell me not to bother about lunch because they just ate a balanced meal. Lol. The pizza made the Nigerian way of 
parboiling our seasoned meats before use, with Nigerian seasoning cube added for that Yummy Nigerian flavour.
