Ingredients

    450 g
  • eggs
    2
  • shredded parmesan cheese
    ½ c
  • garlic powder
    1 tsp
  • dried oregano
    1 tsp
  • salt
    ½ tsp
  • black pepper
    ½ tsp
  • pizza sauce
    1 c
  • shredded mozzarella cheese
    2 c
  • pepperoni slices
    1 c
  • chopped green onions
    ½ c
  • hot honey

    for drizzling

  • fresh basil leaves

    for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, mix together the ground chicken, eggs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.

  3. 3

    Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking sheet. Use a silicone spatula to spread it out into a thin, even rectangle or square—about ¼ to ½ inch thick.

  4. 4

    Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it rest on the pan for 5 minutes to firm up.

  5. 5

    Increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the crust, followed by the mozzarella, pepperoni, and green onions.

  6. 6

    Return to the oven and bake for 10 more minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted. For a golden finish, broil for 1–2 minutes—but watch closely so it doesn’t burn!

  7. 7

    Drizzle with hot honey and scatter fresh basil leaves over the top. Slice and enjoy!
