Ingredients
For the crust
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken Use rotisserie or any cooked chicken.
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
For the pizza
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- to taste pepperoni slices Use as much as you like.

Instructions
Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, egg, and parmesan cheese. Stir until well mixed, forming a sticky dough-like texture.
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Press the chicken mixture into an air fryer-safe pan, spreading it out evenly to form a crust about an inch thick.
Cooking
- Place the crust in the air fryer and cook for about 10 minutes until it becomes firm and lightly browned.
- Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and arrange pepperoni slices on top.
- Return the pan to the air fryer and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once done, sprinkle Italian seasoning on top for extra flavor. Allow it to cool slightly, then slice and serve.
Notes
Serve family-style and let everyone customize their slices. Pair with salad or garlic bread for a full meal. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days, and reheat in the air fryer for optimal crispiness.
