Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger grated
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 ball pizza dough store-bought or homemade, room temperature
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh mint chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Notes
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes to restore crispness. Make-Ahead: The chicken can be marinated up to 24 hours in advance. Substitutions: You can use chicken breast instead of thighs, but thighs will stay juicier. For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free pizza dough. Serving Suggestion: Serve with extra lime wedges and a side of sriracha mayo for dipping.
