This is wonderful...all of the ingredients I would get in a Thai Chicken pizza in Los Angeles many years ago. The only difference is that I don't bake it with the vegetables. I slice the veggies very thin and put them on top of the fresh-out-of-the-oven pizza, then drizzle with the peanut sauce. Yummy! Also, a roasted chicken from the market tastes better and saves time.
