chicken teriyaki naan pizza - kelly's ambitious kitchen.

sometimes, you just don’t wanna cook.

the whole idea of having to ~~look up a recipe on pinterest~~ be culinary creative, gather the ingredients, dirtying handfuls of dishes + cleaning up the inevitable mess you’ve made.

it’s. just. too. much.

today was one of those days.

armed with hanger, i opened my fridge door + saw that the leftover gods were smiling down on me. i had cold chicken teriyaki just waiting to turn my frown upside down.

..and under that hunger-saving tupperware of chicken teriyaki was a pack of roasted garlic naan.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

chinese food. carbs. pizza.

any one of those things will whip me out of funk + into a little happy tummy dance.

let’s marry ‘em all + turn this night around! {insert dancing girl emoji}

that my friends, is how this soul satisfying chicken teriyaki naan pizza was born.

naan’s make my world go ’round. they are the perfect item to have on-hand for whipping up a quick lunch, ~~drunk~~ late night snack or brunch flatbread.

another reason they’re a staple in our house, is because we can stretch any veggies or leftovers that our fridge has to offer! layer whatever you’ve got however you wish + bake it for 10 minutes – it really doesn’t get any easier!

for this spectacular spin – if you don’t have a batch of the chicken teriyaki already leftover, then you can of course whip it up + make this as a homemade night-of home run.

but, i suggest planning the chicken teriyaki for one night {it’s super great on it’s own} then after dinner, store it in the fridge + wait, for ya know, for one of those days.

voila! you’ve got your own back! will have a perfect meal that’s guaranteed to getcha out of any hanger funk!
