  3. Sprinkle shredded chicken on to each individual pizza and then the remainder of the toppings.
  4. For a little more kick to your Thai chicken pizza sprinkle a few red pepper flakes over each pizza, if desired.
Bake Thai Chicken Pizza

Notes

This pizza is super quick and easy to make with any flatbread, but if you'd like a homemade pizza crust is also delicious.
You can use leftover chicken for this recipe or in a pinch canned chicken breast will also work.
Slice all of the vegetables to about the same thickness. I like to use my mandolin to help keep the vegetables uniform in size. This will help them to cook evenly.
Adjust the topping to your liking. This is great for kids to experiment in a new way with vegetables.
