Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Transfer the chicken mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a round pizza crust, about 1/2 inch thick.
