Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Barbecue Sauce (sugar-free)
- 1 cup Cooked Chicken Breast, shredded
- 0.25 cup Red Onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Bell Pepper, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Fresh Cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower and chop it into florets. Add the florets to a food processor and pulse until it resembles rice.
Transfer the cauliflower rice to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes or until softened.
Once cooked, allow the cauliflower to cool slightly before transferring it to a clean dish towel. Wring out as much moisture as possible from the cooked cauliflower.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet and press it into a flat, circular shape, roughly 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
While the crust is baking, mix the shredded chicken with 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce in a small bowl.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the remaining barbecue sauce over the top.
Evenly distribute the barbecue chicken, red onion, and bell pepper over the sauce.
Drizzle olive oil over the top, adding an extra layer of flavor and aiding in the browning process.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for another 8-10 minutes, until the toppings are heated through and lightly browned.
Once the pizza is finished, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy your Low Carb Barbecue Pizza!
