I have been so bad about blogging lately. I have been extremely busy. I'm not using that as an excuse...it is the truth. Now that I will be assisting in planning a wedding, I will be extra busy! But planning a wedding is fun busy and I am so excited to plan it because it is for my beautiful, wonderful, sweet, kind and dear sister! I could not be any happier for her!I know I have posted a Thai chicken pizza recipe before, but this one is different and, to be honest, much better! It is PACKED with flavor!
This recipe uses a peanut sauce that is full of deliciousness from ginger, garlic, soy sauce and of course peanut butter. This sauce would also be wonderful tossed with some noodles and stir fried veggies.
Please try this. You will love it!
Thai Chicken Pizza
1 store bought or homemade pizza dough recipe
Sauce:
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 Tbsp. sesame oil
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
1 Tbsp. water
1 Tbsp. packed brown sugar
3 cloves garlic
1-1 1/2 tsp. fresh ginger, minced or grated
Blend in a blender until smooth
Other toppings:
diced chicken (Iused a rotisserie chicken from Costco)
1 carrot cut into match sticks or grated
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
sliced black olives
sliced sweet onion
1-2 scallions, sliced
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
2 Tbsp. chopped peanuts
fresh mozzarella cheese, grated (I also used a bit of smoked gouda!)
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface and place on a preheated pizza stone (spread some cornmeal on it first) or on a cookie sheet (sprayed with non-stick spray). Bake the crust for about 5-6 minutes. Spread some of the sauce on the crust, followed by the cheese, chicken, onions and the rest of the ingredients besides the bean sprouts. Bake for an additional 10-11 minutes or until the crust is a light golden color and remove from oven. Top with fresh bean sprouts. Enjoy!
