Thai chicken pizza

Recipe Information

Ingredients

• 20 ounces prepared whole-wheat pizza dough

• 1/4 cup smooth natural peanut butter

• 3 tablespoons water

• 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

• 2 teaspoons rice vinegar

• 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1 teaspoon canola oil

• 8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, trimmed and diced

• 1 red bell pepper, diced

• 4 scallions, thinly sliced

• 2/3 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

• After placing the oven rack in the lowest position, preheat the oven to 450°F. Spray a large baking sheet with a thin coat of cooking spray.

• Lightly flour the countertop, and stretch the dough into a 16-inch oval. Place the dough onto the baking sheet. Bake the dough for 8-10 minutes until puffed and lightly crisped.

• While the dough bakes, mix the peanut butter, water, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl, whisking well.

• In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 2-4 minutes until cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl, and mix with the red bell pepper, scallions, and 1 tablespoon of the peanut sauce.

• After the crust has baked, spread a thin layer of the remaining peanut sauce over the surface. Top with an even layer of the chicken mixture and cheese. Bake the pizza for an additional 11-13 minutes or until the crust is crispy and golden.
