Low-Carb Chicken Crust Pizza (Cheat-Meal Feel Without the Cheat)

Serves: 2–3 generous portions
Total Time: ~40 minutes
Freezer-Friendly: Yes (pre-bake crusts)


🧾 Crust Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground chicken (or ground turkey works too)

  • 1 large egg

  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning


👩‍🍳 Crust Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).

  2. In a large bowl, mix together all crust ingredients until fully combined.

  3. Place the mixture between two sheets of parchment paper and roll or press into a pizza crust shape (~¼ inch thick).

  4. Remove the top parchment sheet.

  5. Transfer crust (with bottom parchment) to a baking sheet or pizza pan.

  6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the crust is firm and starting to brown.

  7. Carefully remove crust from parchment and transfer to a pizza pan or clean parchment for topping.


🧀 Topping Ingredients:

  • ¼–⅓ cup rich Alfredo sauce (jarred or homemade — look for low-carb/sugar-free)

  • ½–¾ cup cooked, well-seasoned ground beef (or Italian sausage)

  • 1–1½ cups shredded cheese (mozzarella + a bit of Colby Jack or cheddar)

  • Optional: Red pepper flakes, chopped bacon, or drizzle of olive oil


👨‍🍳 Assembly & Final Bake:

  1. Spread Alfredo sauce evenly over the pre-baked crust.

  2. Add cooked beef evenly across the top.

  3. Sprinkle with cheese blend.

  4. Bake at 450°F for another 12–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown on the edges.


🥓 Variations for Next Time:

  • Pepperoni Alfredo Pizza – Swap ground beef for pepperoni slices.

  • Shrimp Alfredo Pizza – Use cooked shrimp with a bit of garlic and butter.

  • Carnivore Upgrade – Add more meat toppings like bacon, sausage, or even slices of steak.


🥶 To Make Ahead & Freeze:

  • Make and bake crusts in advance.

  • Cool, wrap, and freeze crusts alone, or fully assembled pizzas (unbaked or baked).

  • To reheat from frozen: Bake at 400°F for 15–20 minutes until hot and bubbly.


🥩 Carnivore-Friendly Tip:

This recipe is carnivore-ish due to the cheese and Alfredo sauce. You can make it more strict by:

  • Skipping sauce or using butter/egg yolk base

  • Using only meat and cheese toppings

  • Removing seasonings if you’re ultra-strict
