Preparation

Making the Crab Mixture

  2. Stir until well combined.
Assembling the Pizza
  1. After par-baking, drop spoonfuls of the crab mixture on the crust and let it sit for a minute.
  2. Spread the crab mixture evenly across the crust, leaving a small lip around the edge.
  3. Top with remaining Parmesan, shredded mozzarella, and the rest of the green onions.
Baking

  2. Remove from the oven, drizzle with sweet chili sauce, and top with fried wonton strips.

For extra flavor, consider adding lime juice or zest before spreading the crab mixture. For added heat, mix in Sriracha or hot sauce into the cream cheese mixture.
