Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven for 8-10 minutes to restore crispiness. Make-Ahead: The chicken can be cooked and shredded up to 2 days in advance. Assemble and bake the pizza just before serving. Substitutions: Use a gluten-free pizza crust for a gluten-free option. Substitute bell peppers with zucchini or mushrooms. For a spicier kick, add 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the spice mix. Serving Suggestion: Serve with a side of cucumber raita or a simple green salad to balance the rich flavors.
