If butter chicken and pizza teamed up for the ultimate flavor mash-up, this would be the result! Think of it as butter chicken’s fun, cheesy cousin—tender, spiced chicken in a creamy sauce, wrapped in soft, fluffy dough and topped with melty cheese. It’s like your favorite Indian dish met a warm, comforting bread and decided to make something delicious together.
Instead of scooping up butter chicken with naan, we’re baking it into the dough, creating a personal-sized, flavor-packed treat that’s impossible to resist. Perfect for a cozy dinner, a fun twist on pizza night, or just an excuse to eat more cheese (because who needs an excuse?). Let’s get baking!
Ingrediënten
Make sure the milk is lukewarm (around 37°C – 40°C). If it’s too hot, it can kill the yeast and prevent proper rising.
Allow the dough to fully rise until doubled in size. If it hasn’t risen enough, give it extra time.
Use chicken thighs instead of chicken breast, as they stay juicier and more tender after baking.
Let the chicken mixture cook down well. Ensure the sauce is thickened before cooling.

Stappenplan
1 In a bowl, combine lukewarm milk, yeast, and honey. Mix well and let it rest for 5 minutes. |
2 Add fine semolina, flour, butter, and salt. Knead for 10-12 minutes until smooth and elastic. |
3 Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size. |
4 Heat butter and olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes. |
5 Add the diced chicken thighs, salt, garam masala, turmeric powder, garlic powder, cayenne powder, and cinnamon powder. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. |
6 Stir in the tomato paste, sweet soy sauce, water, and heavy cream. Mix well and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens. |
7 Remove from heat and add chopped parsley and grated cheese. Mix well and let it cool completely. |
8 Deflate the dough and divide it into 9 equal pieces of about 90 g each. Shape them into balls. |
9 Roll out each ball into a circle of about 15 cm in diameter. |
10 Lightly coat a plate with fine semolina and press the rolled-out dough onto it. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. |
11 Spread some of the chicken mixture over the dough and sprinkle grated cheese on top. Let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled in size. Bake the pizzas in a preheated oven at 200 °C (400 °F) for 12-18 minutes until golden brown. |
