Ingredients

1 pound pizza dough

Cornmeal for dusting

1/3 cup sweet Thai chili sauce

2 cups grated mozzarella cheese

1 cup precooked grilled chicken, cubed

2/3 cup julienned carrot

1/2 red bell pepper, diced

2 green onions, chopped

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

2 tablespoons all-natural peanut butter

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1/4 cup chopped roasted salted peanuts

Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C).
Lightly dust a baking sheet with cornmeal and set aside.
Stretch and press the pizza dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming an even layer.
Spread the sweet Thai chili sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border for the crust. Sprinkle the grated mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then distribute the cooked chicken pieces evenly on top.
Bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the pizza bakes, prepare the peanut sauce by whisking together the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, and sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Prepare the fresh vegetables by combining the julienned carrots, diced red bell pepper, chopped green onions, and fresh cilantro in a separate bowl.
Remove the pizza from the oven. Top with the prepared fresh vegetables and drizzle generously with the peanut sauce. Sprinkle the chopped roasted peanuts over the top.
Slice the pizza into portions and serve immediately while hot.

This pizza works on Charlotte tables: pizza dough and mozzarella are staples everywhere, chicken is cheap, and carrots, bell peppers, and green onions are reliable across Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger. The real cost driver is the sauce—you'll need Thai chili sauce and sesame oil together, a second stop at an Asian market or specialty section if your regular store doesn't stock them, adding real time to a weeknight. The stated 30 minutes is honest if dough is ready, but cilantro and peanuts must be chopped and the sauce mixed before assembly, so budget 40 minutes with prep. This reheats well and feeds four without fuss, though it requires an oven's attention and is best served fresh; leftovers work but lose their crunch.
