Crispy, crunchy, sweet, spicy, creamy, and tangy, this pizza sandwich recipe hits all the right notes thanks to the combination of hot honey and chicken parmesan inside!

 

This pizza sandwich is inspired by the Italian Panuozzo, which was created about 50 years ago by using a freshly baked pizza dough as the "bread" for traditional sandwich fillings. This version is all about comfort and flavor, with a chicken Parmesan cutlet, mozzarella, marinara, and basil inside.

 

The secret ingredient that takes it to the next level is Lee Kum Kee Chili Crisp Hot Honey. It's public knowledge that hot honey and pizza dough go well together, but the sweet and spicy combo also meshes well with the crispy chicken, tangy marinara, and creamy mozzarella that acts like a soft heat blanket. A little drizzle of Chili Crisp Hot Honey goes a long way in this recipe!

How to make it

  1. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan in three separate shallow bowls. Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip in egg, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through to 165°F. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
  3. Heat oven to 475°F. Stretch each portion of pizza dough into a 6-inch round and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until puffed, golden brown, and cooked through.
  4. Combine the marinara sauce with 1/4 cup Lee Kum Kee Chili Crisp Hot Honey and warm over low heat. Spread the chili crisp marinara over one half of each warm pizza crust. Top with crispy chicken and mozzarella. Return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

  5. Top the chicken with basil and drizzle generously with the remaining Lee Kum Kee Chili Crisp Hot Honey. Fold the other half of each pizza crust over the chicken to form a sandwich and serve immediately.
