Thai Pizza

Ingredients

For BBQ Chicken

1 crockpot liner

1 frozen chicken breast

1 cup chicken broth

¼ cup hoisin sauce

For Dough

¾ cup hot water

1 teaspoon instant yeast

1½ teaspoons salt

2 cups all purpose flour

Parchment paper

For Sauce

5 tablespoons chunky peanut butter

2 tablespoons minced ginger (I use the squeeze bottle kind!)

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

2 teaspoons hot chili oil

2 teaspoons Sriracha (more if you like heat, less if you don't)

For Toppings

½ cup shredded mozzarella

½ cup shredded cheddar

½ cup chopped green onion

½ cup sliced red bell pepper

½ large carrot, peeled and grated

¼ cup chopped cilantro

¼ cup chopped broccoli

3 tablespoons sesame seeds

Preparation

Bring out your Crockpot/Slow Cooker and line it with your handy, dandy plastic liner.

Throw the frozen chicken breast, chicken broth, and hoisin sauce into the Crockpot.

Set to high and cook for four hours or until the chicken comes apart easily with a fork.

Shred chicken, then drain excess liquid. (Can be made up to one day ahead).

Combine yeast and warm water in a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Add 1½ teaspoons of salt, two cups of flour, and knead until smooth (about 5-8 minutes).

Cover and set aside.

Preheat oven to 425° Fahrenheit.

Roll out dough into a large disk ¼ inches thick on parchment paper.

Move dough and paper to baking sheet.

Combine sauce ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.

In a separate bowl, combine chicken, bell pepper, carrot, and broccoli with 4 tablespoons of pizza sauce. Mix until uniformly covered with sauce.

Spread remaining sauce evenly over dough.

Top with cheese, chicken, green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

Bake for 17 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown.

About

Though it’s not exactly known for authentic Thai cuisine (not that pizza counts either!), the first time I had a “Thai Pie” was in Boulder, Colorado. It was an incredible combination of sweet, savory, cheese, and carbs – I was totally hooked. I’ve since moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and my access to incredible cuisine from all over the world is at an all time high…but I still crave the peanut-y goodness I enjoyed ten years ago. This "thai pie" pizza is a delicious combination of flavorful chicken, rich peanut sauce, cheese, and loads of yummy veggies.
