Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you need for this recipe

  • 2 Medium aubergines
  • Healthy tomato sauce
  • 220g smoked high-protein cheese
  • 1 White onion
  • Baby tomatoes
  • Himalayan pink salt
  • Sliced mushrooms
  • Shredded chicken
  • Quail eggs

Step by step

Method

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 200ºC.
  2. 2Wash the aubergines well and slice them thinly using a mandoline.
  3. 3Arrange the aubergine slices on a baking tray lined with baking paper, overlapping them slightly to form a pizza base.
  4. 4Season with pink salt to taste.
  5. 5Using a silicone pastry brush, coat the aubergine slices with tomato sauce.
  6. 6Next, trim the rinds off the smoked protein cheese and grate it using the coarse side of a box grater.
  7. 7Scatter the grated cheese over the aubergine layer.
  8. 8Peel the onion and, using the mandoline, slice it very thinly before layering it over the cheese.
  9. 9Cut a few baby tomatoes in half and scatter them over the top, doing the same with the mushrooms and shredded chicken.
  10. 10Bake at 180ºC until the cheese is melted and the aubergine is tender.
  11. 11Take it out of the oven, crack a few quail eggs over the top, and pop it back in for a couple of minutes until the eggs are just set.
  12. 12Done! Our aubergine pizza with vegetables and chicken is ready.

Notes

  1. 1Feel free to season with any dried herbs or spices you like.
  2. 2If you don't have smoked protein cheese, regular cheese works great, or a low-fat cheese if that's what you prefer.
  3. 3Watch out with the mandoline—always use the hand guard so you don't cut your fingers!
