Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Ingredients

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter, at room temperature
3 tablespoons unsweetened coconut milk
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice plus lime wedges, for serving
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 scallions, sliced, plus more for garnish
4 ounces pad Thai rice noodles
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 pound store-bought pizza dough, at room temperature
1/2 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp, tails removed and halved lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Sriracha, for drizzling
2 tablespoons salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup mung bean sprouts
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

Place a pizza stone or an inverted rimmed baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
Combine the peanut butter, coconut milk, lime juice, ketchup, soy sauce, sugar, fish sauce, garlic powder and scallions in a large bowl. Set aside.
Prepare the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain well, then rinse with cold water and drain well again. Add to the reserved sauce and toss to combine.
Dust a piece of parchment paper lightly with flour. Stretch or roll out the pizza dough into a 12-inch round on the parchment, then transfer the dough on the parchment to a pizza peel or another inverted rimmed baking sheet. Top the dough with the noodle and sauce mixture.
Sprinkle the shrimp lightly with salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Arrange in a single layer on top of the noodles.
Slide the pizza on the parchment paper onto the stone or baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden and the shrimp are cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes.
Drizzle the pizza with sriracha and sprinkle with the peanuts, bean sprouts, cilantro and more scallions. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips:

For a crispy pizza crust, preheat your oven to the highest temperature it can go (usually around 500°F) before baking the pizza.
Use a pizza stone or baking sheet for a crispy crust. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can use a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy.
Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
If you're using a pre-made pizza crust, be sure to let it come to room temperature before baking it.
Don't overcook the pizza. The cheese should be melted and bubbly, but the crust should not be burnt.

Conclusion:

Pad Thai pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make fusion dish that combines the flavors of Thai and Italian cuisine. With its crispy crust, flavorful sauce, and generous toppings, this pizza is sure to be a hit with everyone at your next party or gathering.
