Indian Pizza

This is not a new dish for us but I thought it was worth reposting, plus we've made a few changes to it.
Indian Pizza
Matt started with our favorite pizza dough recipe from Wisebread. This time he replaced 1/3 of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour. He added a large pinch of garam masala & another of garlic powder to flavor the crust. This created a nice crisp crust though we felt it could use a bit more salt.

For the sauce he used this Indian BBQ Sauce from Bon Appétit. Then he added some grated Monterey Jack, I would have preferred Fontina but the grocery store only had a very expensive one on hand. On top of the cheese, Matt piled some juilienned carrots, sliced zucchini, chopped scallions & some leftover chicken cut into chunks. Such a tasty, different take on pizza.

    Looks fantastic. I'll have to try this on my "cheat" night. Not that it's bad in any sense, just watching my carbs! Thank you for sharing!

    I bet a dollop of mango chutney would be divine on it, too.

    Indian pizza sounds like a great idea. I love to mix up flavors like that. And I'm with Carolyn, mango would be incredible with the rest of those ingredients.

    Yummy! This looks awesome! I bet this would be good if you substituted naan for pizza crust.

    this does sound tasty, and it's so inventive! i think kirby's onto something with his suggestion to use naan.

    I'm surprised NYC hasn't really caught onto the indian pizza craze...

    I am not a pizza expert either. I like pizza with chilled beer. Once I tried Gotham pizza with my colleague. I find Romario pizza tastier and soft too.
