Malaysian chicken pizza

8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ cup Packed brown sugar
¾ cup Rice wine vinegar; or cider vinegar
¼ cup Soy sauce; low sodium
3 tablespoons Water
2 tablespoons Chunky peanut butter
1 tablespoon Ginger root; peeled and minced
½ teaspoon Crushed red pepper; up to 3/4 tsp.
4 Cloves garlic; minced
Vegetable cooking spray
½ pounds Chicken breast; no skin, no bone, R-T-C, * cut into bite-size
2 ounces Swiss cheese; lowfat, **shredded (1/2 cup)
1 ounce Mozzarella cheese; part skim milk, **1/4 cup shredded
8 ounces Pizza dough; refrigerated
¼ cup Chopped scallions

Directions

1). Combine first eight ingredients in a bowl; stir well with a wisk and set aside.

2). Coat a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken, and saute two minutes. Remove from pan, and set aside.

3). Pour vinegar mixture into skillet; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Return chicken to pan; cook 1 minute or until chicken is done. (Mixture will be the consistency of thick syrup.)

4). Roll out pizza crust to desired thickness. I prefer it as thin as possible. Sprinkle cheeses over crust, leaving a ½ inch border . Top with chicken mixture.

5). Bake at 500 * F for 12 minutes on bottom rack. (Use a pizza stone, if available.)

6). Sprinkle with scallions, and let stand five minutes.

7). Cut into 8 equal slices and enjoy! NOTES : *or use 6 oz cooked, leftover chicken or turkey breast **Original recipe used regular swiss and mozzarella cheeses (if I remember correctly). I find that Jarlsburg Lite and the Sargento Light Cheeses work very well in this recipe.
