This Simple 3-Ingredient Chicken Pizza Crust is the Best
Need a legitimately low-carb, simple pizza crust that tastes delicious?!
There’s no need to miss out on pizza night. Pizza crust made from shredded, cooked chicken is the best! This is a brilliant low carb, grain-free pizza hack I’ve been wanting to try for a while, and am so glad that I finally did! And for only one carb per slice? Yes, thanks!
This pizza crust has HOW many ingredients?
Just three: shredded, cooked chicken breasts, eggs, and Parmesan cheese! It doesn’t get easier than that, folks!
I prepped this meal by first boiling some chicken on the stovetop. Then I shredded it in my Vitamix blender. This recipe is also perfect for leftover rotisserie chicken you may have in the fridge. In a pinch, you could even use a can of chicken from your pantry!
Easy & convenient preparation
All you have to do is spread your mixture out on a silicone mat or parchment-covered baking sheet and bake in the oven. I actually baked my chicken breast pizza crust on a 12-inch pizza pan covered with parchment paper. Once the crust is browned, top with your favorite keto-friendly pizza toppings, return the crust to the oven to melt, and you’re all set for a delicious, keto-friendly meal!
The Best Shredded Chicken Pizza Crust
yield: 1 SERVINGS
You won't believe this crust is made out of shredded chicken!
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup chicken, cooked and shredded
- 1 egg, large
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Spread chicken out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet or pizza pan. Bake the chicken for about 8 minutes to dry the chicken slightly.
3
Remove from the oven and mix the chicken in a bowl with egg and cheese. Season as desired. I used salt, pepper, and a little garlic powder.
4
Spread the chicken mixture back on the pizza pan. This time, place the second sheet of non-stick parchment paper over the chicken and roll into a thin crust, using a rolling pin.
5
Bake at 400 degrees for about 10 minutes until golden brown.
6
Place back into the oven with desired toppings and bake for another 10 minutes until the toppings are melted. Enjoy!

The result is a thin crust you can actually pick up and hold.
I can’t state that enough. You know how hard it is to find a low carb pizza crust that doesn’t flop in your hands.
This recipe is very tasty, and I like how crispy the crust gets. It’s also a versatile idea because you can season this crust as desired and top it with lots of different variations. We topped our pizza with mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, and fresh basil, but a fresh pesto sauce would be very delicious on this crust, too! YUM!
This one is my FAV Keto pizza!!!
That’s great to hear! Thanks Amy!
Sounds so easy. Have you tried making this using other kinds of cheese, instead of Parmesan?
I have not, but let us know if you do! Yes, very easy.
