Thai Chicken Pizza
THAI CHICKEN PIZZA
Papa Murphy Copycat Recipe
Makes one 16 inch pizza
Crust
1/2 cup warm water (115 degrees)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups all purpose or bread flour
1 teaspoon dry yeast
Sauce
1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
Toppings
1 large chicken breast, grilled and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1/2 small zucchini, thinly sliced
2 green onions, sliced (green part only)
2 tablespoons diced red onions
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
crushed red pepper flakes
Additional sweet chili sauce, for drizzling (optional)
To make crust, place warm water and salt into a medium mixing bowl. Add a cup of the flour and the yeast, and stir. Add remaining flour (1/3 cup) and stir or knead into a sticky dough, adding additional water if needed. Allow dough to rest, covered with a clean towel, for at least 10 minutes but up to 30-45 minutes. Liberally butter a 16 inch round pizza pan, and then with your clean buttery hands, spread dough thinly over the pan. Be gentle and have patience, as this does make a perfectly thin crust!
Spread the sweet chili sauce evenly over the prepared crust. Then layer the grilled chicken, half of the zucchini slices, mozzarella cheese, the rest of the zucchini slices, green onions, red onions, and cheddar cheese. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper. Drizzle more sauce on top if desired. Let pizza rest for 15 minutes (or up to 45 minutes).
Bake pizza on the middle rack in a preheated 425 degree oven for 12-15 minutes, until browned on top and pizza is hot.
