This spicy bourbon chicken pizza recipe is the fusion of two takeout favorites, with ingredients like chicken, hoisin, and cheese combining deliciously.
Bourbon Chicken is a popular takeout dish at American Chinese spots. Although its roots are unclear, everyone agrees that the first bourbon chicken recipe came out of New Orleans, blending together Cajun and Chinese flavors into one dish that has endured throughout the years. It's sweet, spicy, and umami flavors pair perfectly with pizza, making this fusion a match made in takeout classic heaven.
Use sauces like Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce and Sriracha Chili Sauce to add that blend of sweet and spicy effortlessly, while toppings like bell peppers and onions complete the entire stir-fry ensemble.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly and browned. Remove from the oven, garnish with green onions if desired, and slice while hot.
