Chicken Karaage Pizza

Chicken karaage that tastes just like the real deal…. because it is! Now take that amazing chicken and make yourself a chicken karaage pizza, you won’t be disappointed.  This recipe stays true to the classic recipe with a delicious marinade of soy sauce, sake (or mirin if you’re in a pinch) fresh garlic and ginger. Japanese fried chicken is some of the best fried chicken world wide, hands down.

The secret to a great chicken karaage is deep frying it twice. Not only does this make it crispier but it also makes the chicken so very tender and delicious by giving the chicken a break in between frying. Topped with green onions for the freshness. This chicken karaage pizza has such bold flavors that shine, especially when you add the comforting zing and kick from the wasabi mayo. Spicy mayo for the win!

Buffalo Cauliflower Pizza

Buffalo Cauliflower Pizza

Buffalo Cauliflower Pizza

Awesome flavor with a little kick, this Buffalo cauliflower pizza is just about perfect. Tasty battered and baked cauliflower covered in Buffalo sauce, tangy and hot in all the right places. Did you know that cauliflower is also a type of cabbage?

But what makes this pizza really work is the combination of Buffalo cauliflower with ranch. Ranch, the best sauce in the world and cauliflower, the second best tree shaped vegetable. Broccoli is the first but you already knew that. Not sure if Buffalo broccoli would hold up as well as cauliflower. I guess there’s only one way to find out, but before you do give this pizza a shot because it’s one of our favourite pizzas so far!

Gyoza Pizza

Gyoza Pizza

Gyoza pizza slice

Why you ask would we make a gyoza pizza and what’s wrong with us? Both of these are good questions. But would you believe that it’s actually amazing. Well it totally is. Gyoza are incredible on their own and dipped or drenched in ponzu (we don’t judge) makes them even better.

When you add some fresh green onions, mozzarella cheese and slap it all on a pizza, you got yourself a winner. At first we were a bit concerned about mixing gyoza and mozza but for some strange reason it is delicious. The ponzu does a great job of tying this gyoza pizza together, just make sure you don’t use too much or it will make a mess when baking. We found a 1/4 cup of ponzu is the perfect amount.
