Malaysian chicken pizza
8 servings
Quantity | Ingredient | |
---|---|---|
¼ | cup | Packed brown sugar |
¾ | cup | Rice wine vinegar; or cider vinegar |
¼ | cup | Soy sauce; low sodium |
3 | tablespoons | Water |
2 | tablespoons | Chunky peanut butter |
1 | tablespoon | Ginger root; peeled and minced |
½ | teaspoon | Crushed red pepper; up to 3/4 tsp. |
4 | Cloves garlic; minced | |
Vegetable cooking spray | ||
½ | pounds | Chicken breast; no skin, no bone, R-T-C, * cut into bite-size |
2 | ounces | Swiss cheese; lowfat, **shredded (1/2 cup) |
1 | ounce | Mozzarella cheese; part skim milk, **1/4 cup shredded |
8 | ounces | Pizza dough; refrigerated |
¼ | cup | Chopped scallions |
1). Combine first eight ingredients in a bowl; stir well with a wisk and set aside.
2). Coat a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken, and saute two minutes. Remove from pan, and set aside.
3). Pour vinegar mixture into skillet; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Return chicken to pan; cook 1 minute or until chicken is done. (Mixture will be the consistency of thick syrup.)
4). Roll out pizza crust to desired thickness. I prefer it as thin as possible. Sprinkle cheeses over crust, leaving a ½ inch border . Top with chicken mixture.
5). Bake at 500 * F for 12 minutes on bottom rack. (Use a pizza stone, if available.)
6). Sprinkle with scallions, and let stand five minutes.
7). Cut into 8 equal slices and enjoy! NOTES : *or use 6 oz cooked, leftover chicken or turkey breast **Original recipe used regular swiss and mozzarella cheeses (if I remember correctly). I find that Jarlsburg Lite and the Sargento Light Cheeses work very well in this recipe.
