INGREDIENTS:
For the Tandoori Chicken:
- NOTE: You can use tandoori chicken from restaurants here, just shred it and use in pizza. In this recipe I'm making it from scratch.
- Boneless chicken- 500 gms
- Ginger garlic paste- 1 tbsp
- Salt- to taste
- Red chilli powder- 1 tsp
- Lemon juice- 1 tbsp
- Tandoori masala- 2 tbsp
- Soya sauce- 1 tbsp
- Black pepper powder- 1 tsp
- Oil- for frying
- Live coal- 1 piece + ghee- 1 tsp
For The Pizza:
- Pizza Base- 3-4 nos
- Sliced onions- 1 cup
- Sliced capsicum- 1 cup
- Grated cheese- 2 cups
- Pizza Sauce- 1 cup
- Chilli flakes
- Oregano
PROCEDURE:
- Take washed and drained chicken in a colander, add all the ingredients except oil and coal. Mix well and allow to marinate for at-least an hour.
- Now heat a tawa, drizzle some oil on it and place the chicken on it. Fry the chicken on both sides till crispy. The crispy texture will lend a good taste to the pizza.
- Once cooked, remove it in a plate and let it cool for 5 mins. Now shred the chicken using a fork.
- Once done, remove it in a bowl, place a steel katori with a live coal on it. Now add ghee to it and cover it immediately. Let the chicken absorb the smoky flavor.
- Let it rest for 10 mins.
- Take a pizza base and apply a layer of pizza sauce on it.
- Add a layer of cheese, some sliced onions and capsicum. Now spread the shredded chicken on it.
- Sprinkle chilli flakes and oregano on it.
- Microwave this beauty for 2 mins. Alternatively, place this on a tawa, and cook on low flame till the cheese melts.
- Tandoori chicken pizza is ready.
