CHINESE PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Peanut Sauce: Whisk the peanut butter, water, soy sauce, and sugar, in a small bowl until well combined. Set aside.
• Peanut Sauce Stir Fry: In a nonstick skillet over medium heat add the olive oil. Add the onions and garlic to the pan and cook until heated through or soft; 2 to 3 minutes. Season with crushed red pepper flakes.
• Add diced chicken to the pan and cook until the chicken is heated through. 4 to 6 minutes. The chicken is done when it is no longer pink in the middle. I usually take one chicken piece out and cut it to see if it is cooked.
• Add the peanut sauce to the pan and continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes until everything is heated through.
• If the sauce is too thick add small amounts of water until you like the consistency.
• Serve with cooked noodles.
• Serving Size: 3/4 cup of chicken with sauce

ASIAN CHICKEN WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in food processor and mix until well blended. Set aside.
• Marinade:
• Mix all the ingredients, except the pineapple, together in a bowl, then add the pineapple slices. Let sit for a minimum of 30 minutes. This can also be made a day ahead and refrigerated.
• Preheat the grill to medium and grill each side of the pineapple until they have deep brown grill marks. Remove and slice into desired bite-size pieces. Set aside.
• Dough:
• Preheat the grill and the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix the yeast, water and sugar together in a small bowl until the yeast dissolves into a smooth, beige color. Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Using a stand mixer, add the flours, salt, cornmeal, sesame seeds, and orange zest, and mix with dough hook. Add the yeasted water and mix for 30 seconds. Add the sesame oil, ginger and garlic. If the dough is too dry, add drops of water until it becomes moist. Place dough in oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
• When ready to roll out, cut the dough into 2 pieces and roll out each piece to desired thickness.
• This will give you 2 individual pizzas or you can choose to do one. Put the dough on a preheated pizza stone, if using an oven or a mesh grilling tray, if using a grill. Depending on the thickness of the crust, it will take approximately 10 minutes for thin pizza and 15 to 20 minutes for thicker pizza.
• Chicken:
• Preheat the grill to medium.
• Cut each chicken breast in half to make thinner cutlets. Season with oil, and salt and pepper, to taste.
• Grill for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Remove from the grill to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces, either long strips or chunks. Cover loosely with foil. Set aside.
• Assembly:
