Cooking Lab - Chili Chicken Pizza w Roasted Vegetables

If you like thin crust pizza, you'll love this super easy Lavash flatbread pizza. 

For this recipe, I am using the lavash bread as a pizza base with chili chicken breast ham and various chargrilled vegetables and some freshly shaved pamesan cheese. Together, I serve this pizza with a handful of mixed fresh salad. Drizzle some lemon juice and there you have it. A wonderful rustic dinner within 30 minutes.

I highly recommend lavash. It is a tasty Middle Eastern flatbread, it is very soft and bakes up deliciously in the oven.

Ingredients:

- 1 lavash bread 
- 100g chili chicken ham 
- 100g cherry tomato 
- 100g chargrilled capsicum 
- 100g chargrilled artichoke 
- 100g baby brocolini 
- 100g fresh snow pea sprouts 
- 50g fresh rocket 
- 50g fresh baby spinach 
- 4 tablespoon truffle mushroom sauce 
- 100g shaved parmesan cheese 
- 2 tablespoon light extra virgin olive oil 
- Sea salt and black pepper 

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 180C.

2. Drizzle some light olive oil on the broccolini and cherry tomato. Bake for 5-8 minutes or until tender.

3. Season lightly with salt.

4. Place the lavash on a pizza tray.

5. Generously spread the truffle mushroom pesto sauce on top.

6. Overlap the chili chicken ham slices.

7. Top with chargrilled capsicums.

8. Then add the roasted cherry tomato and the marinated chargrilled artichokes.

9. Finally top with roasted broccolini stems.

10. Drizzle light olive oil on top.

11. Bake in the oven for 5-8 minutes.

12. Remove from oven.

13. Sprinkle the shaved Parmesan cheese all over.

14. Garnish generously with fresh snow pea sprouts, rocket and baby spinach on top.

Note: The salad will soak up any excess oil or grease. 

15. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.

16. Slice and serve it hot.

17. Recommended to drizzle some lemon juice to add a zingy sensation.

It is seriously delicious. It is crunchy with a tiny hint of chili, coupled with all the chargrilled veggie and the tangy lemon juice, it is just a flavour bomb. You won't stop eating. 

Perfect with a nice glass of white.
