Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, eggs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
- Transfer the mixture onto a lined baking sheet and press it out into a thin, even layer. Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown and firm.
- Let the crust cool for about 5 minutes to become perfectly crispy.
- Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Spread pizza sauce over the crust, then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and layer on pepperoni slices.
