Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  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, egg, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully incorporated.
  3. Transfer the chicken mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and shape into a round crust approximately 10 to 12 inches wide.
  4. Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
  5. While the crust is baking, prepare your Caesar salad by tossing chopped romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing and some grated Parmesan cheese.
  6. Once the crust has baked and cooled slightly, generously top it with the prepared Caesar salad mixture.
  7. For extra flavor, add cooked chicken pieces or crispy bacon bits on top and drizzle with more Caesar dressing.
  8. Slice the Chicken Crust Caesar Salad Pizza into wedges and serve immediately while it’s warm.
