Cup of Yum
Thai Chicken
- Sauté the chicken in the olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat until just cooked, about 5 to 6 minutes. Do not overcook.
- Refrigerate the chicken until chilled.
- Once chilled, coat the chicken with 1/4 cup of spicy peanut sauce and return to the refrigerator.
Pizza
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. If using a pizza stone, make sure it is in the oven while it is preheating. Spread cornmeal on a pizza peel or the back of a baking tray to easily transfer the pizza to the oven.
- Stretch and press 8 ounces of pizza dough to form a round thin crust. Transfer the rolled-out dough to a pizza pan or pizza peel.
- Use a large spoon to spread 1/4 cup of the spicy peanut sauce evenly over the dough, leaving the edge of the crust uncovered.
- Cover the sauce with 3/4 cup of mozzarella.
- Distribute half the chicken pieces over the cheese, followed by half the green onions, bean sprouts, and carrots, respectively.
- Sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup of mozzarella over the toppings, followed by 1 tablespoon of chopped peanuts.
- Transfer the pizza to the oven and bake until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese is bubbly, about 9 to 10 minutes.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients for a second pizza.
