Instructions

    1.
    The day before you want to make your pizza, make the chicken pizza crust. In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with salt, pepper, egg, and parmesan cheese. Press the mixture into the base of a 12 springform pan to form the crust. Wrap the pan and set in your freezer overnight.
    2.
    When you are ready to bake your chicken crust pizza, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Remove the frozen crust from the springform pan (you may need to use a blow torch or hot water to help the crust release from the pan). Bake the frozen crust for 20 minutes in the oven. You may either bake the crust on a metal pizza pan lined with parchment paper OR you can arrange the crust on a wide baking rack set over a tray to catch drippings. If your chicken crust releases excess liquid during baking, simply drain the liquid away after the first round of baking.
    3.
    After 20 minutes, remove the chicken pizza from the oven and reduce the oven heat to 375 degrees. Quickly whisk together the barbecue sauce and olive oil, and drizzle it over the chicken pizza. Arrange on top thin slices of tomato, a sprinkle of onion powder, chopped basil, and the shredded cheeses. Bake in the oven for another 20 minutes or until the cheese is very golden on top.
    4.
    After cooling, slice the pizza into 1 slice per serving. Serve with a fork and knife or you can pick up and eat the pizza as normal.
