Chicken & turkey

If you fancy a healthy, creative dinner, this chicken crust pizza is going to win you over. It's a delicious, completely gluten-free alternative, perfect for pizza night by swapping traditional flour dough for a super simple and tasty base.

All you need to do is blend the meat with your favorite spices and top it with whatever you like best. Today I made it with goat cheese and a sweet touch of fresh figs that pairs wonderfully.

Prep: 15 minCook: 18 minServes: 2

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients for 2 people

  • 500g chicken breast
  • Spices to taste
  • Pink salt

Toppings

  • Homemade tomato sauce
  • Grated cheese
  • Goat cheese
  • Figs or pineapple
  • Arugula
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Step by step

Method

  1. 1Preheat the oven to 200ºC.
  2. 2In a food processor, blend the chicken breasts with the spices and salt until you get a smooth, uniform mixture.
  3. 3Next, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush it with olive oil so the dough won't stick.
  4. 4Divide the mixture into two portions, shape each onto the paper, and roll out using a stainless steel rolling pin.
  5. 5Bake the crust for 5-8 minutes at 200ºC.
  6. 6Add your toppings to taste. I used tomato sauce, grated cheese, goat cheese, and figs, and made another one just like it with pineapple.
  7. 7Bake for 10 minutes or until you see the toppings are cooked through and the crust is crisp.
  8. 8Drizzle with a little olive oil over your CHICKEN CRUST PIZZA and serve.

Tips & notes

  1. 1Use fresh chicken breasts, as they are more tender and juicy.
  2. 2Bake on the bottom rack of the oven so your pizza crust gets crispier.
  3. 3In this case, there's no need for the broiler.
  4. 4Let cool slightly on an oven wire rack.
