Chicken Parm Crusted Pizza

Is it a chicken parmesan? Is it a pizza? It’s both, and yes, its keto.

What you will need:

For the crust:

• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

• 1 pound ground chicken

• 1 tablespoon garlic powder

• ¼ cup grated parmesan

• 1 large egg beaten

• 3/4 cup crushed pork rinds (we use Pork Panko)

• 1/2 tablespoon each salt and pepper

• 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder

• Oil for frying (we prefer avocado oil)

Dredging stations: (with salt, pepper and garlic powder in each)

• 1 cup almond flour

• 2 eggs beaten with 1/4 cup of water

• 1 cup of crushed pork rinds

Pizza toppings of your choice! We used:

• Rao’s Pizza Sauce

• Shredded Mozzarella

• Pepperoni

• Fresh basil

Directions:

Make your crusts:

1. Combine chicken, parsley, 1 egg, garlic powder, parmesan, and the crushed pork rinds (3/4 cup) in a bowl. Set aside.

2. Take 1/3 of the chicken mixture and form it into a thin patty on a piece of parchment paper. Lay them on a baking tray and freeze for at least an hour until completely frozen! Ours were 1/2 inch thick but you could make them even thinner!

3. Set up your dredging stations in the meantime

Dredge your frozen crusts then fry them:

1. Carefully dip your frozen patties in the egg wash

2. Coat in almond flour

3. Coat in more egg wash

4. Press into crushed pork rinds

Deep fry in oil on medium heat for 5 minutes on each side. Check temperature to make sure it’s at least 165 degrees.

Build your pizzas:

1. Layer on your toppings! Pizza sauce, basil, mozzarella, pepperoni.

2. Place under the broiler or in a hot oven for a minute or two until everything is melted!
