Pizza

Well this week was a pretty good one. I had an exciting moment come on Wednesday. At the beginning of the month, I sent in a recipe to KSL's Studio 5 program for a teriyaki chicken pizza. I found out on Wednesday that my recipe was selected in the top 5 to be featured on the show and I had to go to Pier 49 pizza in Cottonwood to make it for some judges and the camera crew. I was so excited and nervous. Well...I think that I botched it...pretty badly. I put twice as much sauce as I was supposed to and when there is too much sauce, it tastes a little gross. Well, you live you learn I guess. The show that features the pizza will air on Thursday October 30 at 11 am on Studio 5 on KSL 5 if anybody wants to watch it. Also, here is the recipe (with the right amount of sauce) if you want to make it.

Tasty Teriyaki Chicken Pizza

1 pizza crust
1 1/2 C Cooked chunked chicken
1 1/2 C Mozerella Cheese
3/4 C pineapple tidbits
3/4 C Mom's teriyaki sauce (see below)
1 1/2 Tbsp. cilantro

Put chicken in a bowl with the sauce and let it soak into the meat. Brush about 1/4 C. of the sauce onto the crust . Spread about 1 C cheese over the sauce before evenly spreading the chicken pieces over the cheese. Add pineapple and remaining cheese and drizzle about 1/4 - 1/2 Cup of sauce over the pizza. Sprinkle with cilantro and bake in 425 degree oven for 8-11 minutes. Enjoy.

Mom's Teriyaki Sauce
1 C soy sauce
1/2 C honey
1 C Sugar
1 Clove garlic (minced)
1/2 tsp ginger

bring to boil and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remaining sauce can be refridgerated.

Well have a good one!
