Thai Peanut Chicken Pizza

This pizza is a culinary trip to Bangkok on an Italian crust. The secret is the Satay-style peanut sauce: creamy, sweet, and spicy. Fresh cilantro and crunchy veggies added after baking maintain their snap, creating a contrast with the hot, gooey cheese.

Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Slice chicken thin, salt, and flash-fry in a little oil until just white.

Tip: Sealing the meat keeps moisture inside so it doesn't dry out in the oven.
2

Peel carrot and julienne (matchstick) or grate. Slice onion paper-thin.

Tip: Thin veggies soften perfectly in the short bake time.
3

Roll out dough and spread with half the peanut sauce.

Tip: Peanut sauce is rich (oily); don't overdo it or it will run.
4

Top with mozzarella, chicken, half the onions, and half the carrots.

Tip: Layering is key; cheese anchors toppings, roasted veggies get sweet.
5

Bake 12-15 minutes until crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.

Tip: Don't open the door often; temperature drops hurt the rise.
6

Remove. Top with remaining fresh onion, carrots, sesame, chili flakes, and chopped cilantro.

Tip: The hot/cold and soft/crunchy contrast makes this dish.

Recipe FAQ

The peanut sauce is too thick.
Thin it with warm water or coconut milk until spreadable.
Can I bake the cilantro?
No! It will turn black and lose its fresh citrusy flavor. Always add at the end.
