A low-carb and protein-packed Chicken Crust Pizza that uses a ground chicken base instead of traditional dough. This recipe combines the savory flavors of baked chicken crust with your favorite pizza toppings and melted cheese, resulting in a delicious and healthier alternative to classic pizza.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Crust

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Pizza Toppings

  • ½ cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Optional toppings: sliced pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, olives, onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken Crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, eggs, and 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix thoroughly until well combined to form a cohesive dough-like mixture.
  2. Bake the Chicken Crust: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the chicken mixture into a thin, even circle resembling a pizza crust. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is cooked through and starting to brown.
  3. Add the Toppings: Remove the baked chicken crust from the oven. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese on top, followed by your choice of pizza toppings such as sliced pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, olives, or onions.
  4. Bake the Assembled Pizza: Return the topped pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly, and the toppings are cooked to your liking.
  5. Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make sure to spread the chicken mixture thinly for a crispy crust.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the crust reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.
  • Feel free to customize toppings based on dietary preferences and availability.
  • This recipe is naturally low-carb and gluten-free.
