Description

A low-carb, protein-packed alternative to traditional pizza with a crispy chicken crust and gooey cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Toppings of choice (e.g., marinara sauce, vegetables, additional cheese)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Combine the ground chicken, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix until you achieve a dough-like consistency.
  3. Spread the chicken mixture evenly onto a lined pizza stone or baking sheet. Shape it into a crust roughly 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust turns golden and is fully cooked through.
  5. Remove the crust from the oven and add your desired toppings. Return to the oven for another 10 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
  6. Let the pizza cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

For best results, avoid overmixing the ingredients and feel free to add more cheese for extra flavor.
