Ingredients

  • 1 lb 450g ground chicken or well-drained canned chicken
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup 50g grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup 50g shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, egg, Parmesan, mozzarella, and seasonings. Mix until fully combined.
  • Transfer the mixture to the lined baking sheet. Press it into a thin, even circle about ¼ inch thick.
  • Bake the crust for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and firm in the center.
  • Let it cool for about 5 minutes before adding your pizza toppings.
  • Top as desired and return to the oven for another 10 minutes or until the toppings are heated and the cheese is melted.

Notes

  • Be sure to remove all excess moisture if using canned chicken to prevent sogginess.
  • Parchment paper is critical for easy release and a clean bake.
  • This crust can be frozen after baking and cooled—wrap tightly and store up to 2 months.
  • Use a pizza stone for an extra crispy base.
  • Allow cooling before topping for best results.
