About

Are you a little tired of everything being made from cauliflower? Creating a pizza crust from ground chicken is another viable option for the keto diet! Not only will your pizza include a healthy serving of protein, but your overall meal will actually be reduced in carbohydrates! Make several of these easy pizza crusts in advance, so all you have to do is preheat your oven next time you want to make a pizza!

Ingredients

  • 12 ounce chicken breast, skin removed before eating
  • 1 large raw egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine all the ingredients. Pulse until the chicken turns into a dough-like texture that is soft and pliable.
  2. Choose a pan (preferably round) that is about the size of the pizza you want to make. Line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper or wax paper. A springform pan will be the easiest to work with. You can also use a pie pan or a rectangular sheet pan.
  3. Press the chicken mixture into the bottom of your prepared pan. Make sure the layer of chicken is even in thickness so it can hold your pizza ingredients later.
  4. Freeze the chicken crust for at least 1 hour – until completely frozen. Remove it from the pan and paper lining when you are ready to assemble your pizza. Pizzas should be baked at 350 degrees, but times will vary based on your toppings.
