Ingredients
- 1 lb. ground chicken
- 3/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan, divided
- 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 c. marinara sauce
- 1/2 c. freshly shredded mozzarella
- Red pepper flakes, for serving (optional)
- Basil leaves, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400º and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together ground chicken, 1/2 cup Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
- Spray prepared baking sheet cooking spray. Form chicken mixture into a large round crust, about 1/2” thick.
- Bake until chicken is cooked through and golden, 20 to 22 minutes. Remove from oven and heat broiler.
- Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce, leaving a small border around the circumference of the pizza. Top with mozzarella and broil until cheese is melty, 3 to 4 minutes. Garnish with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan, red pepper flakes if using, and fresh basil.
