Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pizza dough
- 1 piece Chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup Peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1.5 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 medium Carrot, shredded
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 stalks Green onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Crushed peanuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and place a baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven to heat up.
Season the chicken breast with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Cook the chicken in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side. Set aside to cool, then dice into small pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sriracha, and minced garlic to create the peanut sauce. Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more sriracha for extra spice.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper for easier handling.
Spread the peanut sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce.
Top the pizza with the diced chicken, shredded carrot, and thinly sliced red bell pepper.
Carefully transfer the pizza (with the parchment paper) onto the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Sprinkle with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and crushed peanuts, if using.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your Spicy Thai Chicken Pizza with Peanut Sauce!
