Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece ready-made pizza crust
- 1 cup canned tuna in water (drained)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 0.33 cup Thai sweet chili sauce
- 0.25 cup red onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons green onion (sliced)
- 1 teaspoon lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper if not using a pre-made pizza crust with its own tray.
Place the pizza crust on the prepared sheet. Brush the surface lightly with olive oil.
Spread the Thai sweet chili sauce evenly over the pizza crust as the base sauce.
Evenly distribute the drained tuna over the sauce, breaking it into bite-sized chunks if needed.
Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes and red onion slices over the tuna.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top, ensuring it covers the toppings well.
Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle the freshly squeezed lime juice over the pizza for a tangy kick.
Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves and sliced green onions for a fresh, herbaceous finish.
Slice the pizza into 6-8 pieces and serve warm.
