1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C).
2. Prepare the Pizza Base: If using a homemade crust, roll it out to fit your desired pizza pan. If using a pre-made crust, place it on the pan.
3. Mix Chicken and Sauce: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with peanut sauce, ensuring it’s well-coated.
4. Layer Ingredients: Spread the peanut sauce-coated chicken evenly over the pizza crust.
5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the chicken layer.
6. Add Vegetables: Distribute the sliced bell peppers and red onion evenly on top of the cheese.
7. Season: Drizzle lime juice over the top and add crushed red pepper flakes if you prefer some heat.
8. Bake: Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden.
9. Cool: Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
10. Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts over the pizza for added flavor and texture.
11. Slice and Serve: Cut into wedges and enjoy your Thai Chicken Pizza!
