Tandoori Chicken Pizza
My Tandoori Chicken Pizza has a nice mix of sweet and savory Indian flavors that add a unique twist to classic pizza. I top pizza dough with spiced chicken, sweet mango chutney, and colorful veggies and finish it off with a cooling cilantro yogurt sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 whole-wheat pizza dough at room temperature, prepared, 1 lb. ball
- 1 tablespoon cornmeal
- ¾ cup mango chutney store-bought, such as Major Grey’s
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded, reduced-fat
- 3 chicken kabobs chopped (about 1 cup, Tandoori
- 1 yellow bell pepper thinly sliced
- ½ red onion thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- cilantro leaves optional, for garnish
Cilantro Yogurt Sauce:
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt reduced fat
- 3 tablespoons cilantro chopped
- ½ teaspoon ginger chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place a pizza stone on the lowest rack of the oven and preheat oven to 500 degrees for at least 30 minutes.
- Roll the pizza dough out to a 15-inch circle. Sprinkle the cornmeal on a pizza peel and transfer the dough onto the peel. Alternatively, if you don’t have a pizza peel, you can use a baking sheet. Spread the mango chutney evenly over the dough leaving a ½-inch border. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese and chopped chicken over the chutney. Toss the pepper and onion slices with the oil and sprinkle them evenly over the pizza.
- Transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone. Bake 10-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is melted.
- While the pizza is baking, prepare the cilantro yogurt sauce. Place the yogurt, cilantro, ginger, lemon juice and salt in a mini food processor or blender and puree until smooth.
- When the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle cilantro yogurt sauce on top. Garnish with cilantro leaves. Devour!
