Chicken Crust Pizza

Crust:
1lb Ground Chicken
1 Egg
1/2 (ish) cup mozzarella
1/3 (ish) cup Parmesan (I used powdered)
1TBSP Italian Seasoning
1/2 TBSP Garlic Powder
1/2 TBSP Onion Powder

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
Mix above ingredients (can add more cheese if too moist)
Line baking sheet with parchment paper (optional but works better for me)
Spread “dough” approx 1/4” (getting it thin is key!)
Bake 20-25 minutes
Remove from oven, remove parchment paper and flip the “crust” (optional but I find removing the parchment paper for second baking makes it crisper/firmer)
Add toppings of your choice and bake an additional 20ish minutes

Pictured here my toppings were Muenster (hand shredded), pepperoni, and 1/4 cup diced red onion

    Macros:

    ​

    Crust: 3-5g carbs (depends on amount of cheese and whether it’s pre-shredded – mine was in this case vs. hand shredded which would be 0)

    Toppings: approx 14g carbs (cheese was hand shredded so no carbs, Rao’s 10 carbs, red onion 4 carbs)

    ​

    total approx: 20g net carbs

    This crust is great because you can play around with different toppings, we’ve done italian sausage + mushrooms, buffalo sauce + chicken + bacon. I haven’t tried alfredo yet but would like to!
