Pizza con base de pollo

Ingredientes

• 1 pound ground chicken
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup cottage cheese
• 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2/3 cup marinara or pizza sauce
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup diced green peppers
• 1 cup sliced pepperoni

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or very generously grease a 13-inch pizza pan with cooking spray.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, combine the ground chicken, eggs, cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder and oregano with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Using a spatula or your hands, mix together the ingredients until well-combined.

3. 3

   Transfer the mixture onto the parchment paper and spread it into an even layer that’s roughly 1/4-inch-thick.

4. 4

   Bake the pizza base until it golden brown, about 25 minutes. Remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.

5. 5

   Spread the pizza sauce, then top it with the shredded mozzarella cheese and your preferred pizza toppings.

6. 6

   Increase the oven temperature to 450°F.

7. 7

   Return the pizza to the oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. (For even more golden-brown color, place the pizza under the broiler for about 1 minute, but keep an eye on it, as the cheese will turn golden very quickly.)

8. 8

   Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
