Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken
    In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, tandoori paste, lemon juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add chicken pieces and mix well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (or up to 4 hours for more flavor).
  2. Cook the chicken
    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes until fully cooked and slightly charred. Set aside.
  3. Prepare the pizza dough
    Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating. On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a pizza pan or parchment paper.
  4. Assemble the pizza
    Brush the pizza dough with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Spread tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle with half the mozzarella cheese. Arrange cooked tandoori chicken, sliced red onion, and bell peppers on top. Add remaining cheese.
  5. Bake the pizza
    Bake for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. If using a pizza stone, carefully slide the pizza with parchment onto the preheated stone.
  6. Garnish and serve
    Remove pizza from oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro. Let rest for 2 minutes before slicing. Serve hot.
