Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 cup chopped green onions, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 prebaked 12-inch thin pizza crust
  • 1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
