Equipment

Ingredients

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 medium Poblano peppers seeded and chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 can (28-ounce) tomato sauce
  • 4 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Pizzas

  • Cornmeal for pizza stone
  • 4 naan flatbreads white or whole wheat
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 large sweet potato cut into 1/2-inch cubes and cooked
  • 1 can (15-ounce) black beans drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • chopped fresh cilantro

Avocado Sour Cream

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 large avocado pitted and peeled
  • 1/2 large lime juiced

Instructions

Sauce

  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and Poblano pepper, reduce heat to medium and cook 8 to 10 minutes or until very soft. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds or until fragrant.
  • Add the tomato sauce, chipotle chiles, chili powder, cumin, coriander and oregano. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Puree with an immersion blender until smooth or carefully transfer to a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
  • Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Pizzas

  • Sprinkle a small amount of cornmeal on a pizza stone. Top each flatbread with equal amounts of the sauce then toss the chicken with remaining sauce.
  • Sprinkle even amounts of the cheese on the sauce, reserving some for on top. Follow with chicken, sweet potato and black beans. Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until heated through and edges of flatbread are beginning to brown.
  • Garnish with cilantro and serve with Avocado Sour Cream.

Avocado Sour Cream

  • Combine sour cream, avocado and lime juice in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.
