Spicy Peanut Sauce

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/2 cup hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon honey

2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

2 tablespoons sesame oil

1/4 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 tablespoons water

For the Pizza

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 chicken breasts cut into 3/4-inch cubes

1 pound pizza dough

cornmeal

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

4 green onions, slivered diagonally

1/2 cup bean sprouts

1/3 cup shredded carrot

2 tablespoons chopped roasted peanuts

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 500 degrees (or as high as your oven will go).

To make Peanut Sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil gently for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.

Heat olive oil in a nonstick pan and cook chicken until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Place chicken in a bowl and toss with half of the peanut sauce.

Divide dough in half and shape each into a 9-inch round.

Coat a pizza peel lightly with cornmeal and place one pizza dough round on top. Spread 1/4 cup of sauce evenly on dough.

Cover sauce with 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese.

Place half the chicken on top of the cheese followed by half the green onions, carrots, and bean sprouts.

Top with 1/4 cup mozzarella and half of the peanuts.

Transfer pizza to pizza stone and bake 8 to 10 minutes, until crust is golden.

Sprinkle with cilantro and serve. Repeat for second pizza.
