Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Chicken Crust Caesar Salad Pizza
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, shredded mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and the egg. Sprinkle in Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Transfer the chicken mixture to the baking sheet and shape it into a flat, round crust about 10-12 inches in diameter.
  4. Bake the crust for 20-25 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center is fully cooked.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, Caesar dressing, and grated Parmesan. Toss to coat the lettuce evenly.
  6. Once the crust is slightly cooled, top it with the salad mixture and additional chicken pieces if desired.
  7. Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately while warm.
