Ginger Chicken Pizza Recipe

Sometimes Judy Burk makes the crust for this pizza from scratch; sometimes she saves time by starting with a purchased pizza crust. Either way, it showcases one of her favorite flavor combinations--ginger and garlic.

2 tablespoons minced or pressed garlic

2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger

1 1/2 cups finely chopped green onions (including tops)

1 teaspoon olive oil

2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

2 cups shredded boned, skinned cooked chicken

3 firm-ripe Roma tomatoes (about 9 oz. total)

1 baked pizza crust (12 in. wide; 1 lb.)

1/2 cup purchased pizza or marinara sauce

1 cup (1/4 lb.) shredded mozzarella cheese

Step 1

In a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, stir garlic, ginger, green onions, and oil just until onions are limp, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix soy sauce with chicken. Rinse and core tomatoes; cut crosswise into 1/8- to 1/4-inch-thick slices.

Step 3

Place pizza crust in a 12-inch pizza pan or on a 14- by 17-inch baking sheet. Spread crust evenly with sauce, then scatter chicken mixture and onion mixture over sauce. Sprinkle pizza with cheese, and arrange tomato slices evenly over the surface.

Step 4

Bake in a 350° oven until cheese is melted and pizza is hot in center, 12 to 15 minutes. Cut into wedges.
