Let’s Make Ground Chicken Pizza Crust:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425’F
  2. Add the salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic powder into a small bowl, mix to combine.
  3. Add the ground chicken to a mixing bowl and pour in the seasoning mixture. Use hands or rubber spatula to combine really well.
  4. Place a large piece of parchment on the counter or flat surface and put the chicken mixture into the middle. Lay another piece of parchment paper on top and use rolling pin to roll out into a thin circle (about 12″ in diameter)
  5. Gently peel the top layer of parchment off of the top of the thinly rolled out circle. Leave the pizza crust on the bottom layer of parchment and slide onto a baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes. The crust will be easier to manage at this point. Move to a wire rack and place wire rack over the baking sheet. Bake another 10 minutes. This helps air circulate under the crust.
  7. Add the toppings of your choice and bake until toppings are heated through.

Topping Ideas:

  • The classic red sauce, mozzarella and basil
  • Pesto & cheese
  • Prosciutto, goat cheese and balsamic glaze
  • All meat (pepperoni, ham, sausage)

    I made this tonight and really enjoyed it. I had no trouble flattening it. I used ground turkey because that’s what I had. I just used my hands to flatten it like patting out a pie crust because I am lazy and did not wish to spend 10 min looking for my rolling pin. I cooked the crust on parchment paper on my iron pizza pan and it worked perfectly. 15 then toppings then 10min. I am sure I will make again.

  2. The mixture was super sticky. I couldn’t get it off my hands or the parchment paper after rolling it. Not sure how to mix the ground chicken without it being sticky like that.

    1. Did you try wetting your hands with water? Thank usually works for me with sticky ground meats.

      1. When yiu move the crust to a wire rack, is the crust still on the parchment ? It doesn’t seem like the air would circulate under it if the parchment is still there…..just wondering if you’re supposed to remove the bottom parchment at that point?
