Ingredients

  • pizza base1 medium
  • cooked chicken tikka120 g
  • pizza sauce3 tbsp
  • mozzarella cheese80 g
  • onion1 small
  • coriander2 tbsp

Method

  1. Use cooked chicken

    Use chicken tikka that is already cooked through to 74°C, firm with no pink inside, then cut it into small bite pieces. Pre-cooked chicken only needs to warm here, so it will not leak raw juices onto the base.

  2. Spread the sauce

    Spread the pizza sauce over the base in a thin, even layer and scatter the grated mozzarella on top. A thin layer of sauce keeps the base from going soggy, so it bakes up crisp under the melting cheese.

  3. Add chicken

    Arrange the chicken tikka pieces and sliced onion evenly over the cheese. Spreading the toppings out means every slice gets some, and the cheese around them still bubbles and melts without any bare, dry patches.

  4. Air fry

    Air fry at 190°C for 9 min until the cheese melts and turns golden and the chicken is hot right through. Scatter coriander over the top before serving, and watch the last minute so the edges crisp but do not burn.
