| Yield: | 2 pizzas |
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons minced ginger
- 2 tablespoons roasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Vietnamese chili sauce (or dried chili flakes)
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 10 ounces boneless/skinless chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
- 1 store-bought pizza dough
- cornmeal, semolina or flour for handling
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 scallions, slivered diagonally oriental style
- 1/2 cup white bean sprouts
- 1/4 cup shredded carrot
- 2 tablespoons chopped, roasted peanuts
Instructions
- To make Spicy Peanut Sauce: Combine sauce ingredients in a small pan over medium heat. Bring the sauce to a boil. Boil gently for one minute. Divide into 2 portions for use on chicken and pizza. Set aside.
- To make Thai Chicken: Cook the chicken in olive oil over medium-high heat, stirring, until just cooked, 5 to 6 minutes. Do not overcook. Set aside in the refrigerator until chilled through. Once chilled, coat the chicken with 1/4 cup Spicy Peanut Sauce. Set aside in the refrigerator.
- To make the pizza: Place the pizza stone in the center of the oven and preheat to 500 degrees for 1 hour before cooking the pizzas. Use a large spoon to spread 1/4 cup spicy peanut sauce evenly over the surface of the prepared dough within the rim. Cover the sauce with 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella. Distribute half the chicken pieces evenly over the cheese followed by half the green onions, bean sprouts, and carrots, respectively. Sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup mozzarella over the other toppings and top the pizza with 1 tablespoon chopped roasted peanuts. Transfer the pizza to the oven. Bake until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese at the center is bubbly, 9 to 10 minutes. When cooked through, carefully remove the pizza from the oven. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro over the hot, cheesy surface. Slice and serve. Repeat with remaining ingredients for a second pizza. (The 2 pizzas may be prepared simultaneously if you are careful in placing the pizzas at opposite corners of your pizza stone.)

So so good. Cooking the peanut sauce…game changer! Made my own pizza dough and cooked on the grill.
This is a good recipe for Thai chicken pizza. It’s a family favorite.
