- 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

Instructions
1. 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.
2. Spray prepared baking sheet cooking spray. Form chicken mixture into a large round crust, about 1/2” thick.
