Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 16 ounces boneless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
- 16 ounce jar butter chicken simmer sauce or tikka masala
- 6 pieces naan bread
- 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella
- 1/3 cup thinly sliced bell pepper
- 1/3 cup Thinly sliced red onion
- 1/3 cup pickled jalapeno slices
- 1/3 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 1/3 cup fresh mint or basil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Set a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the butter. Once melted, add the chopped chicken pieces. Salt and pepper the chicken liberally, then stir to brown the chicken pieces on all sides, about 5 minutes.
- Pour the butter chicken sauce into the pan. Stir to coat the chicken pieces in the masala sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Meanwhile chop all the fresh ingredients for the pizzas.
- Once the butter chicken curry has fully cooked, lay the pieces of naan bread out on baking sheets.
- Spoon the chicken curry and sauce evenly over the top of the naan, leaving room around the edge. Sprinkle the top of each pizza with a ¼ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Then top each pizza with sliced bell pepper, onion, jalapeños, and a little bit of goat cheese. Place the pizzas in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
- When the pizzas come out of the oven, sprinkle with fresh mint and serve warm.

Notes
- Let the pizza cool completely before transferring leftover slices to an airtight container. Keep in the fridge for up to 2-3 days, but note that the consistency of the naan will change after being refrigerated.
- To reheat: Place the slices on a baking sheet and bake at 350° F for about 10 minutes. However, our FAVORITE way to reheat pizza (and just about everything else) is in the Air Fyer with this handy How To Reheat Pizza guide! Simply air fry slices at 350° F for 3-4 minutes until melty on top and crisp on the bottom.
