Instructions

1

Fry the Chicken

Toss chicken chunks in cornstarch until fully coated. Shallow fry in 1 inch of hot oil over medium high heat for 5 to 6 minutes until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

2

Sauce the Chicken

Toss the fried chicken in General Tso sauce until fully coated. Set aside. The chicken should be glossy and sticky.

3

Prepare the Pizza Base

Preheat oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit. Stretch pizza dough onto a greased baking sheet or pizza stone. Mix hoisin sauce with 2 tablespoons of General Tso sauce and spread evenly over the dough as the pizza sauce.

4

Top and Bake

Scatter mozzarella over the sauce base, then arrange the sauced General Tso chicken evenly on top. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

5

Garnish and Slice

Remove from oven and immediately top with sliced scallions and red chili flakes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve hot.

Common mistakes

Adding too much sauce to the pizza base makes the crust soggy and undercooked
Using un-fried raw chicken on the pizza results in rubbery undercooked chicken
Skipping cornstarch on the chicken means it will not stay crispy after being sauced
