Thai Chicken Pizza Recipe Ingredients
chicken:  you can use diced chicken breasts or chicken thighs, but I use chicken breasts because they are leaner and wonderfully tender in this preparation.
peanut butter:  you can use crunchy or creamy peanut butter but I prefer crunchy for the dimension of texture it adds.
soy sauce:  use low sodium soy sauce so your sauce isn’t too salty because we are also adding peanut butter.
brown sugar:  adds sweetness to balance the soy, lime juice and fish sauce
lime juice:  you may use fresh or bottled lime juice.
fish sauce I promise fish sauce will not be detectable or make your Thai Chicken Pizza taste fishy!  Instead, it is a quintessential Thai food ingredient that adds the balance of savory and salty flavor.  You may substitute fish sauce with soy sauce, but it won’t be quite as rounded.
ginger:  adds a warm spicy, almost pepper taste.  You only need ½ teaspoon ground, otherwise you can use 1 teaspoon freshly grated.
garlic:  use ¼ teaspoon garlic powder or 2 minced garlic cloves.
dried basil:  adds a layer of savory, peppery and slightly minty flavor.
Asian chili paste or sriracha:  if your sauce is missing something, it is heat!  Add chili sauce to taste.  If you aren’t sure how much to add, you can start with less then stir in more at the end if needed.
WHAT TOPPINGS FOR THAI CHICKEN PIZZA?
Thai Chicken Pizza is topped with:
thinly sliced red onion:  you may substitute with green onions if red onions are not your thing.
mozzarella cheese:  use freshly grated cheese for best results.
white bean sprouts:  add a delightful, fresh crunch!  Packaged bean sprouts go bad very quickly so make sure to use them within a couple days.
matchstick carrots: you can slice your own thin carrots or purchase pre-packaged matchstick carrots.
cilantro: adds the fresh, zesty, citrusy kick.  Add it after the chicken comes out of the oven.  Use more or less to taste.
chopped peanuts: add yet another dimension of undeniably delicious texture.
Add your own!  You may also try your own toppings such as shredded cabbage, shredded Brussels sprouts, water chestnuts, pineapple etc.
