Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground chicken You could also use ground turkey.
- 1/2 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese If using freshly grated, it adds a brighter flavor.
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour Optional; it helps with binding.
- 1 large Egg Helps to bind the ingredients.
- 1 tablespoon Shredded parmesan cheese Optional; adds flavor.
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasonings Add more for extra warmth.
- Parchment paper For rolling and baking.
- Olive oil spray To prevent sticking.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a medium bowl, add ground chicken, egg, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, almond flour, and Italian seasonings. Combine using a wooden spoon or your hand.
- Mix until the ingredients form a ball. If it feels too wet, add a teaspoon more almond flour.
- Cut two sheets of parchment paper and spray one with olive oil. Place your chicken mixture on it and cover with the second sheet.
- Using a rolling pin, flatten the mixture into a round shape. Aim for even thickness.
- Peel away the top parchment paper and transfer the crust on the bottom parchment to a baking sheet.
Baking
- Bake the crust at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes until it turns golden.
- Remove from the oven and check for golden edges and a firm center. If it’s still soft, bake for an additional two minutes.
- Add your favorite toppings and sauces, ensuring they are balanced to maintain crust crispness.
- Bake again at 400 degrees for another 8 to 10 minutes until cheese is melted.
Notes
Store any leftover crust in an airtight container for up to three days in the fridge. Reheat at 350 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes, or use a hot skillet.
