Malaysian Chicken Pizza


Title: Malaysian Chicken Pizza
Categories: Lowfat, Poultry
Yield: 8 servings

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

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 1/2 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.
