Thai Chicken Pizza

1 large pizza crust, homemade or store bought.
1/4 c. creamy peanut butter
2 Tbsp. teriyaki sauce
2 Tbsp. hoisin sauce
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. water
2 tsp. sesame oil
1 tsp. soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 tsp. minced onion
1/2 tsp. ginger
1 boneless skinless chicken breast thinly sliced
1 1/2 tsp. olive oil
1 1/4 c. mozzarella cheese
1-2 green onions
1/2 c. bean sprouts
1/4 c. chopped carrot
2 tsp. minced cilantro
1 Tbsp. chopped peanuts

Mix together: peanut butter, teriyaki sauce, hoisin sauce, sugar, brown sugar, water, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, red pepper flakes, onion and ginger for the peanut sauce in a blender. Blend for about 15 seconds. Pour this mixture into a small pan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Cook for 1 minute. Don't cook too long or the sauce will become lumpy. Pour one third of the peanut sauce over the chicken in a ziploc bag and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2 hours. (I have done less and it still tastes great.) Heat 1 tsp. of oil in a small pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in it for 3-4 minutes or until cooked through. Preheat oven to 475. Roll out pizza dough and top with chicken, cheese, green onions, bean sprouts, carrot, cilantro and peanuts. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until middle is melty and outsides are lightly browned.
