Preparation

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Spray 12-inch pizza pan or 13x9-inch pan with CRISCO® Original nonstick cooking spray. Unroll dough; place in sprayed pan. Starting at center, press out dough to edge of pan to form crust.

2. Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until very light golden brown.

3. Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; sprinkle with chili powder, salt and garlic powder. Cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Add onions and bell pepper strips; cook and stir an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and vegetables are crisp-tender. Spoon chicken mixture evenly over crust. Spoon salsa over chicken; sprinkle with cheese.

4. Bake 14 to 18 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown. Cut into wedges or squares to serve.
