Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup BBQ sauce, low-carb
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 0.5 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a pizza pan or a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly oil it with olive oil.
Break the cauliflower into florets, place them into a food processor, and pulse until you achieve a rice-like consistency.
Place the cauliflower rice in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 8 minutes, or until softened. Let cool slightly.
Once cooled, transfer the cauliflower to a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, mix the cauliflower, egg, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, salt, and garlic powder until well combined.
Place the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared pizza pan and press it into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and dry to the touch.
While the crust is baking, in a small bowl, mix the shredded chicken with 1/4 cup of the BBQ sauce until well coated.
Remove the crust from the oven and brush the remaining 1/4 cup of BBQ sauce evenly over the top.
Sprinkle 1 cup of cheddar cheese over the sauce, then distribute the chicken, red onion slices, and remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped cilantro, slice, and serve hot.
