  • 1 chicken breast sliced

Instructions

For the Pizza Crust

  • In a medium bowl, mix together one cup of the flour with the yeast, salt, and sugar.
  • Mix together the warm water and the oil and add to the bowl of the flour mixture. Mix together.
  • Add the rest of the flour, a little at a time, only as you need it until you have a soft dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured counter and knead the dough by pushing it with the heels of your hands and turning it for about 3-4 minutes, or until you have a soft dough that is slightly sticky. Let sit for 10 minutes.

For the Peanut Sauce

  • Add all ingredients to a small bowl and whisk together until combined.

For the Peanut Chicken

  • Cook the chicken in a non-stick pan, over medium heat for about 2 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Add 3 tablespoons of the peanut sauce and 2 tablespoons water. Stir together until fully combined. Remove from heat.

To cook the Pizza

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220℃). Press the dough out onto a greased pizza pan. Or use a rolling pin to roll a 12-inch disc and place that on a greased cookie sheet.
  • Spread most of the sauce onto the pizza dough using the back of a large spoon.
  • Add the chicken and then the mozzarella cheese.
  • Add the red onions and the bell pepper.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and crust is light golden brown. Slice and garnish with the cilantro leaves.

Notes

  1. Water should be 120° to 130°F.  Water that is not warm enough will not activate yeast, and water that is too warm will kill yeast.  The water should feel very warm to touch.  Use a thermometer for best results.
  2. Make sure yeast is fresh, expired yeast will not rise.
Makes a 12-inch pizza.
