Chicken Curry Pizza 
  • Pizza Dough (homemade or pre-made dough)
  • 6 oz Chicken Breast cooked and diced or shredded

Instructions

Curry Sauce Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium low heat.
  2. Whisk in tomato paste and spices. This will be a lumpy thick paste.
  3. Slowly whisk in coconut milk and water and increase to medium heat. Whisk until sauce is fully combined.
  4. Add sour cream and whisk until combined.
  5. Simmer on medium-low heat for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally. DO NOT allow the sauce to boil. The sauce will thicken as it cooks.
  6. Finish the sauce with the juice of half a lime and stir.
  7. Note, this is a very spicy curry sauce. You can control the spice level by reducing the amount of red pepper flakes.
  8. You may have leftover curry sauce.

Chicken Curry Pizza Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven according to pizza dough instructions.
  2. Cook chicken and dice or shred with a fork once cooked.
  3. Slice onions, carrots, the bell pepper and set aside.
  4. On a lightly floured surface, stretch out pizza dough into a circular shape.
  5. Spoon the curry sauce onto the top of the dough and use the back of the spoon to spread it evenly across the whole thing leaving about an inch of dough exposed along the edges. I usually use 3-4 tablespoons per pizza.
  6. Add the chicken pieces to the top of the curry sauce.
  7. Add onion slices, carrots, and bell peppers to the top of the pizza.
  8. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top. 
  9. Bake pizza in the preheated oven according to pizza dough instructions or until golden brown and cheese is melted.
  10. Top with cilantro or green onions.

Notes

This is enough to make three 10 inch pizzas. Cooking time will vary based on what type of pizza dough you use and what type of oven you bake it in.
