Ingredients

To make this you’ll need:

  • Chicken– This uses 2 12.5 ounce cans of chicken. If you don’t like canned chicken you can you two boiled, roasted, or pressure cooked chicken breasts instead. 
  • Eggs– For binding
  • Parmesan– Shredded
  • Seasoning– Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper
  • Lettuce– Chopped romaine
  • Dressing– Your favorite light Caesar dressing.

How to Make

Making this chicken Caesar salad pizza is pretty easy.

Start by making the chicken crust by draining the chicken and smashing it up until it is finely shredded.

Then mix the shredded chicken with the eggs, half cup of Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl until very well combined.

Put the chicken mixture onto a parchment paper lined pizza pan you’ve sprayed liberally with nonstick spray.

Press the mixture down and shape it into a thin circle for the crust.

Storing Leftovers

If you think you will have leftovers, I would recommend storing the crust separately from the toppings so that nothing gets soggy.

To store the chicken crust, wrap it tightly and refrigerate it for up to 3 days.

Reheat the crust in the oven until warmed through and top as desired before serving.

Tips and Tricks

  • Adjust the seasoning to suit your taste.
  • If you are using chicken breasts and not canned chicken, you can get the right texture for the crust if you put them in the food processor to shred.
  • Other yummy topping ideas include pepperoncini, croutons, and mozzarella cheese.
