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 mozarella cheese
- 20 slices pepperoni
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, eggs, Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
- Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and press into a ¼-inch thick rectangle or circle.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden and firm. Drain any pooled liquid at the 20-minute mark.
- Raise oven to 450°F. Spread pizza sauce over crust, add mozzarella and pepperoni.
- Bake another 8–10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Rest 3–5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
Notes
Ensure you spread the crust to ¼ inch thick for optimal cooking; any thicker can cause it to be undercooked in the center. Drain accumulated liquid midway through baking to maintain a crispy crust. Let the pizza rest after baking to achieve a firmer texture, making slicing easier. Use parchment paper instead of foil to prevent sticking and allow for even crisping.
