This probably one of my favorite recipes I have ever made. My cousin, Karen, told me about this recipe, so I took inspiration from it. My husband loves this pizza so much! We make it for ourselves and when we have company over when the weather is nice out!

1 pizza dough, any brand
1/2 cup plum sauce
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 package (2 cups) shredded provolone
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 rounded tablespoonful crunchy peanut butter
2 teaspoons Franks hot sauce
2 teaspoons grill seasoning (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning) eyeball it
4 chicken thighs, 1/2 pound
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar or cider vinegar
1/2 cup zucchini cut into matchsticks
1/2 cup carrot cut into matchsticks

Directions:

  1. Preheat grill to 425 degrees F. You could use the oven if you don’t have a grill.
  2. Form pizza crust on pizza pan or cookie sheet. Top with plum sauce – spread it around like you would pizza sauce. Sprinkle the pizza with some crushed red pepper flakes then top with cheese. Bake until golden and bubbly. This will take 10-15 minutes.
  3. While the pizza is cooking, combine vegetable oil, soy sauce and peanut butter with hot sauce and grill seasoning in a plastic zip lock bag. Add chicken and coat evenly with mixture. Let stand 10 minutes then grill chicken thighs 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the inner temperature reaches 165 degrees. Slice chicken into bitesize cubes.
  4. While chicken cooks, mix honey and vinegar and add the carrots and zucchini. Turn to coat evenly. This will slightly pickle/marinade the carrots and zucchini.
  5. Once you take the pizza off the grill, top the hot, cooked pizza with the diced chicken. Drain carrots and zucchini and scatter over the pizza.
  6. Cut into slices and serve!
