Pizza Chicken.. Low carb meal

ergumm · April 2013

I found this recipe on facebook and just had to share! Sounds like a great idea for a low carb meal! It looks amazing! I'm going to try it when I get groceries again. If someone tries it before I do, please let me know what you think. :-)

PIZZA CHICKEN
1 boneless chicken breast, pounded flat if thick
Salt, pepper, garlic powder and Italian seasoning, to taste
1 tablespoon pizza sauce
4 slices pepperoni
1 teaspoon butter or oil
2 fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 thin green pepper rings
1 ounce mozzarella cheese, shredded

Season the chicken with salt and other seasonings; grill. Meanwhile, sauté the mushrooms and pepper rings in butter or oil until slightly tender, but not mushy; set aside. Spread the sauce over the chicken, then top with the pepperoni, the pepper rings, mushrooms and then finally, the cheese. Sprinkle with a little additional Italian seasoning, if desired. Bake at 350º about 10-15 minutes or until hot and the cheese is melted. Serve at once.

Makes 1 serving
Can be frozen but the peppers will get soft

I make doughless chicken pizza with ground white chicken meat. I flatten out the ground chicken on a pizza pan just as you normally would dough. Then bake it on 350 until just done (about 15 minutes). Remove from the oven, drain any liquid, and top it just as your normally would a pizza and then return to oven until cheese is melted. (Crank the oven up to around 400 before putting it back in the oven, so that it melts the cheese quickly without overcooking the chicken. Sometimes I will actually do an easy broil on this step, rather than baking at 400 deg., so the toppings are cooking and not the chicken.)

It helps the flavor of the chicken (and texture) if you mix it with a little cheese and pizza sauce before you spread it out and bake it. 1 pound of ground chicken makes about a 10 - 12" diameter round pizza. I like to spread it out really thin. Perfect for 2 people.
