Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground chicken
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 large egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup crushed tomatoes (or canned tomato sauce)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder for sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese for toppings
Your choice of low-carb pizza toppings (e.g., pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, olives)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
On a parchment-lined baking sheet, spread the chicken mixture into a circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed tomatoes, olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
Once the crust is done, spread the homemade pizza sauce evenly over the crust, followed by an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Add your chosen low-carb toppings.
Return the assembled pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
