Ingredients:

For the Chicken Satay:

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated ginger
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• Bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

For the Peanut Sauce:

• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup coconut milk (more as needed to adjust consistency)
• Crushed peanuts, for garnish

For the Pizza:

• 1 pre-made pizza crust or homemade pizza dough
• Sliced red onion
• Sliced bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
• Sliced jalapeños (optional for extra heat)
• Shredded mozzarella cheese
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, ground coriander, and ground cumin. Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for maximum flavor.
2. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers, shaking off any excess marinade. Grill the chicken skewers for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from the grill and set aside.
3. Prepare the peanut sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the creamy peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, grated ginger, minced garlic, and coconut milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce is smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, thin it out with more coconut milk until you reach your desired consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the pizza crust package or recipe instructions.
5. Assemble the pizza: Place the pre-made pizza crust or homemade pizza dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread a generous layer of the peanut sauce over the crust, leaving a small border around the edges.
6. Arrange the grilled chicken skewers on top of the peanut sauce. Scatter sliced red onion, bell peppers, and jalapeños (if using) over the chicken. Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese over the pizza.
7. Bake the pizza in the preheated oven according to the pizza crust package or recipe instructions, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with crushed peanuts and fresh cilantro leaves before slicing and serving.
9. Serve your Indonesian-Inspired Sate Ayam Pizza hot and enjoy the explosion of flavors with each bite!
