This pizza is addicting--Chicken, cheese, and pine nuts with an Asian sauce and the zing of a little crushed red chili--and easy to make! This is also fabulous on a sliced sandwich roll instead of Boboli bread.

Categories     appetizer

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 cups (about 1 pound) skinned, boned and cubed chicken
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon peanut oil
3 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
2 teaspoons chopped jalapeno pepper
Pinch chopped cilantro
Salt
Pizza dough, recipe follows
3 cups grated mozzarella
2 cups grated fontina
1 pound (about 6) plum tomatoes, ends removed and cut into thin slices
1/2 cup eggplant, cubed and sauteed or grilled
1/2 cup onion, sliced, grilled and chopped
Chopped chives, for garnish
4 teaspoons Parmesan, grated
1 package active dry or fresh yeast
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus additional, for brushing

Steps:

  • Arrange the cubed chicken in a medium bowl and toss with 1/2 cup olive oil, lime juice, jalapeno and cilantro. Season lightly with salt. Let marinate for about 1 hour, refrigerated.
  • In a skillet large enough to hold all of the chicken in 1 layer, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Saute the chicken just to brown on all sides.
  • Preheat the oven to 525 degrees F. Brush the rolled out pizza dough lightly with oil and top the pizza dough with the mozzarella, fontina, plum tomatoes, eggplant, onion, chives, Parmesan, and chicken. Place on the pizza stone and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until done.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4-cup warm water.
  • In a mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour and the salt. Add the oil, yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 cup of water and mix on low speed until the dough comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl and clusters around the dough hook, about 5 minutes. (The pizza dough can also be made in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse once or twice, add the remaining ingredients, and process until the dough begins to form a ball).
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes longer. The dough should be smooth and firm. Cover the dough with a clean, damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot for about 30 minutes. (When ready, the dough will stretch as it is lightly pulled).
  • Divide the dough into 4 balls, about 6 ounces each. Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times. Then on a smooth, unfloured surface, roll the ball under the palm of your hand until the top of the dough is smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let rest 15 to 20 minutes. At this point, the balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
  • To prepare each pizza, dip the ball of dough into flour, shake off the excess flour, place the dough on a clean, lightly floured surface, and start to stretch the dough. Press down on the center, spreading the dough into an 8-inch circle, with the outer border a little thicker than the inner circle. If you find this difficult to do, use a small rolling pin to roll out the dough.

SPICY CHICKEN PIZZA

People either seem to love or hate this recipe. I, personally, love it!! I also think it would make a nice baked chicken ... though, I haven't tried that yet. Using low-sodium soy sauce has been asked of me ... it can be salty.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb chicken, diced
1 cup sliced green onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 pizza crust

Steps:

  • Mix ingredients 2-6 into a marinade.
  • Stir in chicken and let marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Drain and save marinade.
  • Cook chicken in a frying pan until done.
  • Stir cornstarch into marinade.
  • Add marinade to chicken and cook until thick and bubbly. About 2 minutes.
  • Add a small amount of water to make mixture less thick and easier to spread.
  • Spoon onto a 12" pizza crust. You can use the pizza dough balls from the store, or make your own in your bread machine. I like to do this and add garlic and Parmesan cheese to the dough.
  • I like to prebake my crust for about 10 minutes. It seems to make the finished product less doughy.
  • Add cheese.
  • Cook at 400°F for 20 minutes.
  • After removing from oven, sprinkle top with additional green onion, if desired.

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the pizza dough for a few minutes before adding the toppings.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings, or it will become soggy.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pizza, or the crust will become dry and tough.
  • Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving, so the cheese has time to set.

Conclusion:

This spicy chicken appetizer pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make party snack or appetizer. It's perfect for game day, potlucks, or any other casual gathering. The combination of spicy chicken, creamy cheese, and tangy sauce is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give this spicy chicken appetizer pizza a try.
