Instructions
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.
Sauce the Chicken
Toss the fried chicken in General Tso sauce until fully coated. Set aside. The chicken should be glossy and sticky.
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.
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.
Garnish and Slice
Remove from oven and immediately top with sliced scallions and red chili flakes. Slice into 8 pieces and serve hot.
