Curry in a Hurry Pizza

by Candace Sampson

Have I mentioned I’m loving this gig as a Patak’s Mom? Because I gotta tell you mixing in a little India is probably the most fun I’m having in the kitchen this year. So far, I am loving everything we try but most of all I’m really digging the convenience. Like this Curry in a Hurry Pizza I made tonight. I bought store bought sesame flat bread, cooked up some chicken with some mild curry paste, added a few veggies on top and voila…Curry in a Hurry Pizza.

There is no doubt that 9 out of 10 times I prefer to make my meals from scratch but December is extra nutty and I just don’t have the time. Nor do you I suspect. It’s December people….it’s Crazyville. But I hate, loathe actually, spending money to eat out. Holy cow, this month is expensive enough! On the other hand, I don’t want to eat food that’s terrible either. You see where I’m going with this right? Exactly. Patak’s. I gotta tell you that so far I’m very impressed with the quality of the ingredients and the price of the pastes and sauces. This pizza was also a huge hit with my family today.

Curry in a Hurry Pizza

1 premade pizza shell OR two Naan from your favourite Indian place OR flatbread
2 chicken breasts
1 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp Patak’s Mild Curry Paste
14 oz can chopped tomatoes
3-4 cocktail tomatoes, cut into slices
1/4 of a red onion, sliced thin
3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Heat oven to 425F. Cut chicken into 1/2 inch cubes. Heat olive oil in non-stick skillet over medium high heat and toss in chicken. Cook until chicken is cooked. Add 4 tbsp Patak’s Mild Curry Paste and chopped tomatoes. Cook until heated through. Spread chicken mixture over dough, place sliced onions and tomatoes on top and cook in oven for 10-12 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro, cut into pieces and serve. Serve Patak’s Sweet Mango Chutney on the side as a dip.

    Love the title of this recipe! Tandoori pizza is one of my faves but I’ve never mixed in some curry.. but perhaps the next time I’m in a hurry (umm.. EVERY day) I shall have to give this a whirl!

    Ha! I’m not very original but I heard there was a restaurant in Britain called “Curry in a Hurry”. Made me smile.
