Chicken Crust Pizza

I love anything pizza, but I avoid gluten and grains for the most part, so I’m always looking for new ways to make it. Here’s one of my faves for you. It's super easy and full of protein. The flavor and texture of the ground chicken pizza crust makes it a crowd pleaser for many palates even if you’re not low carb. Don't use canned chicken or baked chicken breast. Other recipes call for it, but it doesn't quite come out the same.

I really missed pizza at the beginning of my non starchy carb journey and this crust satisifies all my cravings.

I use FODY marinara and stay away from garlic and peppers. Pay attention to how you feel after you eat something, If it is not digesting well, you may need to omit some ingredients for a bit.

Chicken Crust Pizza

Ingredients

1 pound ground chicken
½ Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese (for crust)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Your favorite pizza toppings

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper..
Add the ground chicken, cheese, italian seasoning and salt to a bowl. Mix thoroughly with your hands.
Dump the mixture on the prepared pan and spread into a pizza shape about ¼ inch thick.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. If any liquid bakes out of the crust, you can carefully absorb it with paper towels.
Add your favorite toppings: We recommend sauce, nitrate free pepperoni, more cheese and banan peppers and mushrooms.
Bake the chicken crust pizza for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and slice and serve.
