Chicken Crust Pizza
Chicken Crust Pizza - yes, chicken for the crust! This recipe is gluten-free and low carb, but packed with protein from the ground chicken. Keep it simple with traditional pizza toppings such as tomato, cheese, and basil; or get creative and add your favorite toppings!
I N G R E D I E N T S
1 pound Ground chicken
1 tsp salt
Pepper
Β½ tsp parsley
Β½ tsp basil
Β½ tsp oregano
Β½ tsp garlic powder
4 tbsps tapioca flour (or 2 tbsps corn starch)
D I R E C T I O N S
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Combine all ingredients together in a bowl and mic with your hands or a large spoon until spices are well incorporated.
Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and spray with oil.
Flatten chicken mixture using oiled hands the best you can. Then use a second piece of parchment paper on top to continue to flatten evenly with your hands by doing a spreading motion on top of the paper. Crust should feel as even as you can get it and be about a quarter-inch thick.
Bake for 15 minutes. Once time is done take out crust and raise your oven temperature to 475 degrees.
Dry top of the crust with a paper towel and flip it. Dry the current top side. Then top with tomato sauce, cheese, and fresh basil (or desired toppings).
Put the pizza back in the oven for 5-7 minutes.

You can make a large pizza crust or 3-4 smaller ones. Any crust shape you make works.
Depending on how you top it, this can be a keto-friendly meal or an easy way to hit your protein goals! This will not taste like a traditional crust but is still delicious. Make sure you flatten the mixture really well, you want this to be very thin (see below photos for reference).
