Welcome to #SummerGamesWeek 2021 hosted by Amy from House of Nash Eats!  We are celebrating the start of the Tokyo Games with over 50 recipes representing more than 25 countries competing in the upcoming Summer Games! Come join me and my fellow Summer Games Week bloggers as we bring you recipes from appetizers to drinks to entrées and desserts!

I enjoy both traditional and nontraditional pizzas. But with how frequently I have pizza for dinner it’s refreshing to have some very different options out there.

So now it is time for a very nontraditional pizza. There is no tomato sauce or even pesto, instead the sauce is sweet Asian chili sauce. To continue with the lack of tradition, it’s topped with zucchini, peanuts and cilantro. The only things not out of the ordinary are the chicken, mozzarella and basil. But do not fear the unexpected because your taste buds will love this – that is if you are into nontraditional pizzas and Asian flavors.

Nutrition facts: 200 calories 20 grams fat

Ingredients

  • 1 recipe pizza dough, risen
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • 1/4 cup sweet Asian chili sauce, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 large zucchini, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup shredded cooked chicken
  • 2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 Tbsp chopped peanuts
  • 2 Tbsp minced fresh cilantro
  • 2 Tbsp minced fresh basil

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 500 with a pizza stone* on the bottom third. Roll out the pizza dough into a 12-14 inch round. Spread the chili sauce over the crust in an even layer.  Layer with the shallot, zucchini, red pepper flakes, shredded chicken, and cheese.
  2. Transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone using a pizza peel* and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the crust is lightly browned, about 10-12 minutes.  Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.  Sprinkle evenly with the peanuts, cilantro, and basil before slicing and serving, with additional sauce drizzled on top if desired.

Notes

*Don't have a pizza stone/peel? Assemble on a round or square cookie sheet instead.

This sounds like my type of pizza! I’m always that person buying the weird flavors of pizza and having everyone roll their eyes at me and tell me I’m strange. Now I can make one in the comfort of my own home and no one can roll their eyes hehe

Yum!!! I made a Thai Chicken Pizza a few months ago and it was wonderful! Never got to taking pictures, so it didn’t make the blog. Now you have me wanting to make it again!
