Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Add the coconut milk, minced garlic, honey, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, vegan oyster sauce, and garlic powder in a small pot on low heat. Stir together until combined.
- Slowly stir in crunchy powdered peanut butter and whisk (paid link) for 5 minutes. The sauce should be creamy. Set to the side.
- Season the chicken breast evenly with coriander, cumin, black pepper, and sea salt.
- Heat skillet to high heat and sear chicken for 1 minute. Remove from heat and set to the side. The chicken will continue cooking in the oven at a later step.
- Spread the flour over the kitchen counter. Place the fresh dough onto the floured surface and shape the dough into a circle using your hands. Finish shaping and flattening the dough with a pizza roller. Place dough on a round pizza pan.
- Spread peanut sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving an inch on the perimeter of the crust.
- Layer peanut sauce with half of the seared chicken, half of the carrots, and the mozzarella cheese. Finish by layering the remaining seared chicken and carrots, red bell pepper, green onions, red pepper flakes, basil flakes, and cilantro leaves.
- Bake for 16 to 18 minutes.
