TANDOORI CHICKEN PIZZA
From the California Pizza Kitchen Cookbook. This is a very interesting, non-traditional pizza. I made it very spicy by using more jalapeno than called for. Next time, I may briefly saute the zucchini before putting it on the pizza. The chutney is optional, but it is a nice addition.
