Cooking with Indigo Lesson 2: Healthy 'Pizza'

[Indigo]

Pizza is awesome, right? But it isn't exactly the healthiest of food. Here's my recipe for a healthy (ish) pizza with a mock pizza base.

Chicken and Chorizo Pizza

You will need:

• Chicken breast
• Tomato puree
• Red Pepper/Bell Pepper
• Low-fat cheese
• A courgette/Zucchini
• Chopped garlic (I used pre-chopped because I'm a lazy fuck
• Chorizo (you can use fresh but I just used pre-sliced to save time)
• Pesto
• Chapati (Indian tortillas, you can use tortilla's too)

STEP 1

Assemble your ingredients. You can pretty much swap out all of the ingredients to add your own toppings but I like chicken and chorizo.



STEP 2

Cut your chicken up into small pieces and place in a bowl, add a spoon full of chopped garlic and season with salt and pepper. Mix that shit round in the bowl to make sure all of the chicken gets coated.



STEP 3

Chop your courgette/zucchini and red pepper and place in a bowl together, put this to the side for now.



STEP 4

Squirt some tomato puree in a bowl and add a small spoon of pesto to it, mix that shit up in a bowl. This will be your tomato base.



STEP 5

Spoon the mixture out onto your chipati/tortilla, try to spread it evenly (better than I did)



STEP 6

Add some low calorie spray (or oil, whatever) to a frying pan and start frying that chicken up. Season it some more at this point if you want to.



STEP 7

Cut the chicken smaller while its cooking so it cooks faster and so you can more evenly distribute it on the pizza, unless you like big chunks.



STEP 8

Add the courgette/zucchini and peppers to the pan when you think the chicken is nearly done, keep them in there for like a minute just to get a good char on them.



STEP 9

Shred the chorizo and add some of the cheese to the pizza bases. Put the bases on a baking tray, I used a pizza tray but you can just use a regular one.



STEP 10

Add the now (hopefully) finished chicken and vegetables to the pizza bases, try and even out the toppings.



STEP 11

Put that shit in the oven on 200 degrees (like 400 Fahrenheit?) for around 5-8 minutes, just so the tortilla goes a little crispy and the cheese melts. 



STEP 12

Cut it into slices and eat that shit.




Enjoy.

Oh I don't doubt that. It would just taste horrible to me since it's from such a disgusting supermarket chain.
