Chicken crust Pizza. Yes...Chicken CRUST pizza.

Ok...I have NOT tried this, but I see it posted on IIFYM groups, and members RAVE about it. Figured I'd share. I HAVE done the cauliflower crust before, and it is really good.

Chicken Crust Pizza

Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Total time: 35 mins


Serves: 4


Ingredients


1 Pound of Ground Chicken
¼ Cup Parmesan Cheese
¼ Cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning Blend (or just a bit of Oregano and Basil)
Sauce and toppings of your choice.



Instructions


Pre-heat the oven to 400*.
In a medium bowl combine the ground chicken, cheeses and spices. Line your pizza pan or cookie sheet with parchment paper sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
Place the ground chicken mixture onto the pizza pan. Then Place a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap on top of the chicken mixture. Evenly press the mixture into the pizza pan. If you want you can even use your rolling-pin to get it nice and even. Remove the parchment/plastic wrap once done.
Bake in the oven for 20 min or until the crust is golden.
place whatever sauce, toppings and cheese you like on the chicken crust then return to the oven to bake for an additional 10 min until the cheese and toppings are melted heavenly goodness.


Realize that if you make this, the pizza CRUST will have over 140g protein in the CRUST...that's just from the chicken breast (1 lb). I didn't figure up the macros with the rest of the stuff, but Damn! If you use lower fat cheese in it, this would be ridiculously macro-friendly. My food processor is messed up. As soon as I get another, I'll be trying this.

I'm at work & they lock our internet down. I'm lucky I can get on BOP.

In essence, you grind the chicken & mix it with cheese. Flatten it out & bake it until it's crisp. I'm sure the thinner you spread it, the crispier it gets. As I said, I haven't done this, but I've done the cauliflower crust. Everything is held together by the cheese. But then again, the cauliflower crust uses more cheese. I'm going to do this w/ breast put in the food processor and shredded up. Mix the cheese in & smooth out. Bake it till crisp, then top it & bake some more to melt the cheese & heat the toppings.

1. Egg Whites
There's a reason why every successful bodybuilder in the world incorporates egg whites into their diet. With a protein to fat ratio of 60:1, egg whites are unquestionably one of the purest forms of protein in the world.This magnificent muscle-building food also possesses an extremely high biological value—meaning that a large proportion of the protein absorbed from egg whites is readily utilized by your body for protein synthesis. Egg whites also contain very few carbohydrates and are a source of vitamins and minerals.
Egg whites: 50 calories | 84% protein | 8% carbs | 0% fat |
2. Chicken/Turkey
To pack on pounds of serious muscle, lean meats such as chicken breasts should be a staple in every bodybuilder's diet. Aside from providing an excellent source of high quality protein, they are also extremely low in saturated and trans fats.
Chicken breast: 172 calories | 48% protein | 0% carbs | 48% fat
Turkey: 119 calories | 73% protein | 0% carbs | 22% fat
3. Fish
Although the recurring theme so far has been to eat foods that are low in fat, fish is one exception to this rule. Your body needs essential fatty acids such as omega-3 to help support the muscle-building process.Cold water fish such as salmon, tuna, trout and sardines are an excellent source of protein and healthy fats. Canned fish packed in water also comes in very handy because it provides a quick source of protein when on the go.
Salmon: 116 calories | 69% protein | 0% carbs | 27% fat
Tuna: 116 calories | 88% protein | 0% carbs | 6% fat
Trout: 148 calories | 56% protein | 0% carbs | 40% fat
Sardines: 208 calories | 47% protein | 0% carbs | 50% fat
