What You Need
1 Recipe Basic Pizza Dough for a 16 inch pizza or purchased crust
1 Cup peanut sauce
3 boneless chicken breasts*
1 carrot
6 green onions, chopped, green tops included
1 cup fresh bean sprouts
1/4 cup finely chopped peanuts (optional)
1/3 cup fresh cilantro
Crushed red pepper, to season individally when served
(*If desired,marinate chicken breasts in 1/2 cup of peanut sauce overnight. This makes a richer dish, but is not necessary. I also think it gives the chicken a weird texture, kind of rubbery. Reserve marinade for later if you use this step.)
Preheat oven to 400° F. Roll out the pizza dough and bake until very lightly browned. Cool slightly before building your pizza.
Julienne the carrot. Slice green onion. Chop cilantro. Set aside.
Sauté chicken breasts in oil until just brown on both sides. Cut into slices or cubes and stir in a few tablespoons of peanut sauce, set aside. Spread 1/2 cup peanut sauce evenly on crust,leaving a 1/2 inch border Spread chicken evenly over pizza. Sprinkle the onions and carrots on top of that, add raw bean sprouts and cilantro in that order. Drizzle reserved peanut sauce over pizza. Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top of desired. Bake pizza for 10 to 15 minutes or until the crust is a light brown. Let cool a bit, slice and serve. You can serve with crushed red peppers and more fresh cilantro, for individual tastes. The original version I had was very hot, so I imagine it was intended to be that way. Remember, my version is the toned down one.
