Green Chicken Tikka Pizza has a unique spicy flavor of green chatni. The amazing flavor of this delicious pizza will make you try this mouth-watering recipe again and again. I am a foodie person and I love to try different variations with the authentic recipes. I did the same with the traditional pizza which is usually prepared with a tomato-based pizza sauce. The uniqueness of this green chicken tikka pizza is, I do not add any tomatoes and tomato sauce in it.
This pizza is totally based on green spices like green chilies and fresh green coriander. First, I prepare a green chatni (sauce) with the help of these ingredients including garlic, salt, oregano and vinegar. After that, I marinate the chicken with the green spices too. The Green Chicken Tikka Pizza looks really yummy and it tastes great. You must try this pizza at your home and enjoy it with your family and friends.
