Ingredients
- chicken breast - watch the video to see (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- tikka masala simmer sauce - watch the video to see (store-bought jarred sauce)
- cheese - watch the video to see (shredded, suitable for melting (e.g., mozzarella or blend))
- butter - watch the video to see (for garlic butter)
- garlic - watch the video to see (minced, for garlic butter)
- cilantro (or parsley as substitute) - watch the video to see (finely chopped, for garlic butter)
- pizza dough or base - watch the video to see (ready to use or homemade)
Instructions
- Sauté Chicken: Cut chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and sauté in a pan until nearly cooked through.
- Add Tikka Masala Sauce: Pour store-bought tikka masala simmer sauce into the pan with the chicken. Let it simmer until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce thickens slightly.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix softened butter with minced garlic and finely chopped cilantro or parsley to create a garlic butter spread.
- Assemble Pizza: Spread the tikka masala chicken and sauce mixture evenly over the pizza dough or base. Top generously with shredded cheese.
- Bake Pizza: Place the assembled pizza in a preheated oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden and cooked through.
- Finish with Garlic Butter: Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately brush the crust with the prepared garlic butter to mimic the flavor of garlic naan.
