Serve and watch them disappear

Making these is as simple as adding ground chicken, cheese and pizza flavorings. Press them down in a muffin tin, cook, top and voila! Treats all round! I used a mini muffin tin but a regular muffins would be just as delicious.

STORAGE

Although these are best made fresh you could store any leftovers (I'm not sure what that is for these though!) in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Reheat them and they should last the next day.

RECIPE TIPS

If you don't have a muffin tin you could make these by rolling out balls on a parchment paper lined baking tray. Press them down into circle, cover with the sauce and cheese and you are good to go!

We used this recipe for mini pizza bites but you could use this to make a large pizza. Spread the chicken and cheese base over a large parchment paper lined pizza pan instead of using mini muffin tins.

Ground turkey can be used in place of the chicken to make this low carb pizza crust. It works the same but just has a slightly darker colour.

    Can you add other pizza meat to it? Might have to try ground turkey.

    I made these tonight for the Patriot’s playoff game. I bought a cooked whole chicken from BJ’s and deboned it this morning. I only used 3 cups of chicken, I chopped it by hand and then put it in my food processor. I filled them about half way in the muffin times and cooked them a few more minutes then the recipe. They came out delicious. I am on the keto diet and to have yummy pizzas without a bread crust is wonderful. These are my new go to appetizers.

    Is this ground chicken or finely chopped raw chicken?

    Reply

    • Angela Coleby

      It was raw chicken blitzed in the food processor. You could use raw chicken mince too.

    Sorry for the probably silly question- is the chicken raw? I think so from your comments, but I bet this would work with finely chopped cooked chicken- the egg would bind it, and the cheese would help....thanks!

    • Angela Coleby

      Hi, yes it is raw. You are right about the finely chopped chicken though. What a great idea!
