Directions
To make spicy peanut sauce: Combine sauce ingredients in a small pan over medium heat. Bring the sauce to a boil; boil gently for one minute. Divide into two portions for use on chicken and pizza; set aside.
To make Thai chicken: Cook the chicken in olive oil over medium-high heat, stirring, until just cooked 5 to 6 minutes. Do not overcook.
Set aside in the refrigerator until chilled through. Once chilled, coat the chicken with ¼ cup Spicy Peanut Sauce. Set aside in the refrigerator.
To make the pizza: Place pizza stone in the center of the oven and preheat to 500 degreesF for one hour before cooking the pizzas.
Use a large spoon to spread ¼ cup spicy peanut sauce evenly over the surface of the prepared dough within the rim. Cover the sauce with ¾ cup shredded mozzarella.
Distribute half the chicken pieces evenly over the cheese followed by half the green onions, bean sprouts and carrots, respectively.
Sprinkle an additional ¼ cup shredded mozzarella over the other other toppings and top the pizza with 1 tbs. chopped roasted peanuts.
Transfer the pizza to the oven; bake until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese at the center is bubbly, 9 to 10 minutes. When cooked through, carefully remove the pizza from the oven. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro over the hot, cheese surface. Slice and serve. Repeat with remaining ingredients for a second pizza.
