Preparing Thai Green Curry Chicken Pizza

Preheat your kitchen oven to approximately 500 degrees.

Roll out the dough to either slightly smaller than your pizza stone (if you have one) or on a metal tray for the kitchen oven.

Alternatively, if you have a pizza oven, roll out to be smaller than your pizza peel.

First, spread the sauce around. This pizza calls for Green Curry Sauce. Spread the Green Curry Sauce evenly using the back of a large spoon or the blunt side of a knife.

You should start by adding the largest ingredients, then work your way down. The last is any cheese topping, such as Mozzarella, which you should evenly cover the other toppings with, and then finally any herbs.

The toppings to include on this pizza are;

  • Chicken
  • Mozzarella
  • Parmesan
  • Oyster Sauce
  • Hot Pepper Flakes
  • Thai Basil

I find this pizza tasty by itself, yet why not with other pizzas as well?

Oven time

Put the Thai Green Curry Chicken pizza on the middle shelf of the oven and set a timer for 10 minutes.

After approximately 10 minutes, open oven door and check on pizza.

The pizza should be done within roughly 15 minutes. Always cook to personal tastes.

About Parmesan

Parmesan is a translation of the Italian words, Parmigiano-Reggiano. The two terms refer to the same cheese. Often referred to as the “King of Cheeses”, Parmesan is an Italian hard, granular cheese produced from cows’ milk, which is then Aged for at least 12 months.
Parmesan was praised as far back as 1348 in the writings of famous Italian writer, Boccaccio, in his works, the Decameron. October 27 is designated the International “Parmigiano Reggiano Day” by The Consortium of Parmigiano Reggiano.

Pizza Tools

When making Thai Green Curry Chicken Pizza, I always recommend that you use what you have available, without spending lots of money. My basic pizza tool list is…

Glass Measuring Jug

I hate taking chances with portions, so having a quality glass jug with clear to read measurements a vital kitchen tool for me.

Chef Apron

OK, not really pizza related, but a good chef apron makes me feel the part when I am making my pizzas. I’d probably wear a chef hat if I got one too!

Pastry Brush

A pastry brush is vital if you need to ever coat your dough in water, oil, eggs or more. They are cheap to have and very handy to use.

 

Basil

One of the most popular and easy to grow garden herbs, Basil is a sun loving herb which grows in warm weather. Originally found in India, there are between 80-150 species of Basil, which can be found in so many cuisines around the globe, including Thai and Italian foods.

Most types of Basil that we eat belong to the sweet basil species. Basil used to be used in Egyptian embalming techniques, and has been found in mummies in Egypt. Handy!

Keeping Pizza

Leftovers after the meal? Here are some tips.

Can you freeze pizza?

You can freeze pizza for up to three months, however I’d suggest consuming it within the first few weeks, ideally.

How to reheat

Pizza making FAQ

Want to make delicious pizzas at home? Here are some expert answers to some of the most common pizza making questions.

When do I add ice cream on a dessert pizza?

With ingredients such as ice cream, cream and even fruits, it is normally best to cook the pizza with the harder toppings, and then add these toppings after baking, so they don’t burn or melt everywhere in the oven.

Can I substitute pizza sauce with regular ketchup or pasta sauce?

You can try, however you probably won’t enjoy the result. Both ketchup and pasta sauces are typically too runny to use as pizza sauce. You are better using tomato paste, or at least mixing tomato paste in with your ketchup, to get a thicker sauce. Half the taste of pizza sauce is in the garlic and herbs, so don’t forget to add those as well.

How many slices are in a pizza?

A typical pizza has either 6, 8 or 12 slices, depending on the size and who cuts it up.
