Chicken Tikka Masala Pizzas Recipes

CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA PIZZA

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and stir to combine, the let it sit and proof for 5-10 minutes, until slightly foamy.
• Meanwhile, in a separate mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Turn the paddle on at low speed and drizzle in the olive oil slowly, mixing until combined.
• Pour the yeast mixture into the oil and flour mixture and mix until completely combined.
• Prepare a clean bowl with a little extra oil so that the dough won't stick to the sides while it rises, then scrape the dough into the bowl, turn to coat in the olive oil, and cover it with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for 1 hour, or place the dough in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
• To prepare the dough for pizza assembly, divide it into two roughly equal parts. Roll out each ball of dough on a lightly floured surface to form a very thin crust, then transfer to a clean baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough.
• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• While oven is heating, gently spread about 1 cup of the tikka masala sauce around each rolled out portion of dough, leaving a slight margin around the edges to create a crust. Sprinkle chunks of the chicken on top, along with half of the chopped red onion, cilantro, and mozzarella. Repeat with the other portion of dough and remaining ingredients.
• Bake each pizza until the crusts are golden and the cheese is bubbly, around 12-15 minutes.
• Alternatively, you can grill your pizza by rolling out the dough, brushing both sides with olive oil and laying each crust on a preheated grill to cook for 2-3 minutes, then flipping, topping with the sauce, chicken, onions, cilantro, and cheese, then closing the lid and cooking another 2-3 minutes or longer, until the cheese is melted and the crust is cooked through.

CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA PIZZAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the red onion with the red wine vinegar and a good pinch of salt and set aside (the vinegar will soften the onion slightly, which is a blessing as no one wants completely raw onion on pizza).
• Put the naan breads on a baking tray, sprinkle over a little water, then put in the oven for 2 mins to heat up. Meanwhile, put the chicken and peppers in a frying pan with the curry paste, toss together, then fry over a high heat for 6-8 mins until cooked.
• Take the naans out the oven, spread each one with yogurt, then top with the chicken, red onion, green chilli, coriander and mango chutney.

CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA PIZZA

Steps:

• In a bowl, marinade the chicken with the Marinade for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
• Line a layer of aluminum foil in a baking pan for grilling. Spread the marinated chicken in a single layer on the pan, discard the remaining marinade. Grill the chicken at 450°F (232°C) for 6-7 minutes, turning at half time.
• While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Tomato Sauce and Spice Mix in separate bowls. Remove the chicken from the pan when it is done and discard the juice.
• Heat a small sauce pan and melt the butter. Sauté the garlic and jalapeno until aromatic. Pour in the Spice Mix and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes on medium heat. Remove the jalapeno and discard.
• Add in the Tomato Sauce and stir well to mix. Sprinkle salt to taste and continue to simmer until the sauce thickens, another 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the chicken meat into the sauce and mix well.
• Pre-heat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Place the pizza crust on a pizza pan and brush lightly with olive oil. Spread the sauce/gravy on the pizza crust. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of cheese. Arrange the chicken on the pizza. Top it with the sliced onions, chopped cilantro and the remaining cheese.
• Reduce the temperature to 425°F (218°C). Bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes. Remove the pizza from the pan when is done and garnish the remaining chopped cilantro.
