Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 large egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
Your choice of toppings (pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, olives, mushrooms, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, the egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Line a baking sheet or pizza stone with parchment paper. Spread the chicken mixture onto the prepared surface, shaping it into a round pizza crust about 1/2 inch thick.
Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, sprinkle the additional shredded mozzarella cheese on top and add your desired toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to set. Slice it into wedges and serve warm.
