Broccoli Chicken Crust Pizza is a low-carb, protein-packed alternative to traditional pizza. Made with finely chopped broccoli and shredded chicken, this sturdy, flavorful crust is perfect for loading up with your favorite toppings.

Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 2 cups finely chopped broccoli florets
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • For the toppings:
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Sliced bell peppers
  • Sliced mushrooms
  • Sliced olives
  • Cooked bacon or additional chicken (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Steam chopped broccoli for 3–4 minutes until tender. Cool slightly and squeeze out excess moisture thoroughly using a clean towel.
  3. In a large bowl, combine drained broccoli, shredded chicken, egg, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. Press mixture onto prepared baking sheet into a 1/4-inch thick round or rectangle.
  5. Bake 20–25 minutes until firm and lightly golden around edges.
  6. Spread pizza sauce evenly over crust.
  7. Sprinkle mozzarella and add desired toppings.
  8. Bake an additional 8–10 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Remove as much moisture as possible from broccoli to prevent soggy crust.
  • Bake crust fully before adding toppings for best structure.
  • Store refrigerated up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in oven to maintain crispness.
  • Substitute cauliflower for broccoli if desired.
