• 1 pound ground chicken (preferably lean)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup almond flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste

For the Pizza Toppings:

• Sugar-free or low-sugar pizza sauce
• Part-skim mozzarella cheese, shredded
• Your favorite vegetable toppings (e.g., bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes)
• Lean protein (e.g., grilled chicken, turkey pepperoni)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the Chicken Crust: a. In a mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, grated Parmesan, almond flour, egg, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. b. Mix the ingredients until well combined. The mixture should be sticky but manageable.

3. Shape the Crust: a. Place the chicken mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet. b. Using your hands or a rolling pin, spread and flatten the mixture into a thin, even layer, shaping it into a circle resembling a pizza crust.

4. Bake the Crust: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the chicken crust for about 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden and the crust is cooked through.

5. Prepare the Toppings: While the crust is baking, prepare your pizza toppings. Chop vegetables and cook any protein you plan to add.

6. Assemble the Pizza: a. Once the crust is done, remove it from the oven. b. Spread a thin layer of sugar-free or low-sugar pizza sauce over the crust. c. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce. d. Add your favorite vegetable toppings and lean protein.

7. Bake Again: Place the assembled pizza back in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

8. Serve: Allow the pizza to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
