Ingredients

450 g ground chicken
2 large eggs
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese
20 pepperoni slices

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, eggs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.
Step 3: Transfer the chicken mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and press it evenly into a thin circle or rectangle.
Step 4: Bake for 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and firm. Let it rest for 5 minutes to set.
Step 5: Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Spread pizza sauce evenly over the crust, then top with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni slices.
Step 6: Bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 7: Let the pizza cool slightly, then slice and enjoy your crispy, cheesy low-carb meal!

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add chopped fresh basil or oregano before baking the crust.
Try different toppings like mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives to customize your pizza.
If you prefer a thinner crust, spread the chicken mixture more thinly before the first bake.
Use cooked chicken instead of raw ground chicken for a quicker prep time.

Storage

Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or a skillet to maintain crispiness rather than microwaving, which can make the crust soggy.
