Asparagus And Curry Chicken Pizza Recipes

THAI CURRY CHICKEN PIZZA

Steps:

• Position an oven rack on the second-lowest level in the oven; place a baking stone on the rack.
• Position another rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat oven to 500°.
• Prepare toppings: in a saucepan, warm the oil over low heat; stir in the curry paste.
• Add in the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice.
• Increase heat to medium; bring to a simmer.
• Add in the chicken, chopped basil, and bamboo shoots; simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, drain the chicken and bamboo shoots and transfer to a plate to cool.
• Increase heat to medium-high; boil the sauce until it is reduced to about 2/3 cup; set aside to cool.
• Coat a 14-inch pizza screen or perforated pizza pan with cooking spray.
• Place dough on a lightly floured work surface; lightly dust the dough with flour.
• Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a 10-inch round without rolling over the edges.
• Lift dough and check to make sure the dough isn't sticking to the work surface.
• Shake excess flour from the dough; lay dough on prepared pan and gently stretch dough into a 14-inch round.
• Top the pizza: spread the reduced sauce over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
• Drain and discard any juice from the chicken and bamboo shoots; arrange them in a single layer over the sauce; sprinkle mozzarella evenly over the top.
• Place the pizza in the oven on the upper rack; bake 10 minutes, until the crust is crisp and golden brown.
• Using a pizza peel, lift the pizza off the pan and place the crust directly on the baking stone (remove pizza pan from oven).
• Bake about 3 minutes, until the bottom of the crust is golden brown.
• Using the peel, remove the pizza from the oven and transfer to a cutting board.
• Scatter bell pepper, carrot, and basil ribbons over the pizza; slice pizza into wedges and serve immediately.

CURRY CHICKEN WITH ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• 1. In a heavy pan or skillet cook bacon to render fat. Add chicken pieces, salt, pepper and brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
• 2. In the same pan, add onion, bell pepper, and asparagus, and cook until softened. Moving the vegetables aside add tomatoe paste and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, stir in the curry powder and ginger and cook a minute more. Add chicken and stir all together.
• 3. Stir in chicken broth and lower heat, cover and simmer for about 5 minutes or until chicken is done. Stir in coconut milk and simmer a few minutes more. Serve over Jasmine rice. I like to put the curry sauce on the bottom then the rice and top with meat and vegetables and then more sauce.

CHICKEN BACON ASPARAGUS FLATBREAD PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Preparing Toppings:.
• Arrange bacon on a aluminum foil lined cookie sheet.
• Place each chicken breast between sheets of parchment paper and tenderize/flatten with a mallet or small sauce pan. Move chicken to a baking pan, drizzle each breast with 1 tbsp olive oil, coating both sides. Salt and pepper to your own taste or use a premixed seasoning.
• Place bacon and chicken in the oven. Bake bacon for 10-12 minutes or until crisp enough to crumble. Bake chicken for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
• While the bacon and chicken bake, heat the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Halve and slice the onion and mince the garlic. Add to the skillet once the oil has heated (shimmering). Cook onions and garlic until the onions have begun to turn translucent. Remove to a bowl.
• Chop the asparagus into 1 inch pieces, set aside. (You only need to use the top two inches, discard the rest).
• When the bacon is cooked, move to a paper towel for a minute or two to drain any excess grease. Crumble/break apart each piece and set aside.
• When the chicken is cooked, remove from oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Move to a cutting board and slice into bite size pieces.
• Increase oven heat to 400.
• Assembling Pizza:.
• Place two flatbreads per cookie sheet. Coat with a thin layer of pizza sauce. Place 1/4 of the chicken, onion mixture, bacon and asparagus on each flatbread. Top each with 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
• Bake at 400 for 7-8 minutes or until the flatbread is crispy and the cheese melted.
