I've got the place to myself...
Yup, Nathan is out of town for a couple of days.
That means parking in the middle of the driveway and sleeping in the middle of the bed. It means "secretly" sneaking things onto his Honey Do List and "secretly" catching up on trash tv (aka Bachelor Pad- don't hate) in the privacy of my own home. It means maybe, just maybe, remaking a mini version of this crazy good pizza we ate last week at 10pm on a tuesday night.
Alllll for my single gal self. Just because I can. And because it's AMAZING.
That deserved all caps.
Smothered with sweet chili sauce "marinara", zucchini "pepperonis", chicken, cheese, and a sprinkling of fresh herbs I could eat this pie every night. (p.s. it's even great as a single gal's pizza bagel, just fyi)
Thai Chicken Pizza
Makes one 12-inch pizza
1 batch of your favorite pizza dough
Olive oil, for brushing
1/2 cup sweet Asian chili sauce, plus extra for drizzling
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 large zucchini, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup shredded cooked chicken
2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3-4 tablespoons chopped peanuts
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil (optional)
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees with a pizza stone in the oven. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-14 inch round. Lightly brush the perimeter of the dough with olive oil. Spread the chili sauce over the crust in an even layer. Layer with the shallot, zucchini, red pepper flakes, shredded chicken, and cheese.
Transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the crust is lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle evenly with the peanuts, cilantro, and basil before slicing and serving.
