Ingredients

  • 1 lb rotisserie chicken Shredded (skin removed)
  • 3 tbsp Aji Amarillo paste Found in Latin markets or online
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise Full fat for creaminess
  • 1 tbsp lime juice Freshly squeezed
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika For that 'smoked' flavor profile
  • 1 ball pizza dough Store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese Shredded
  • 0.5 cup feta cheese Crumbled
  • 2 tbsp red onion Thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp cilantro Chopped, for garnish
  • 1 tbsp olive oil For brushing crust

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in an air fryer or oven at 350°F to maintain crispiness. Make-Ahead: You can prep the chicken mixture up to 2 days in advance. Variations: Add roasted red peppers for sweetness or a drizzle of spicy oil for extra heat. If Aji Amarillo paste is unavailable, mix yellow bell pepper puree with a dash of habanero sauce for a similar flavor profile.
