Steps to prepare the keto-friendly chicken pizza recipe
Preheat oven at 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, stir together ground chicken or turkey, Parmesan and mozzarella cheese, seasonings, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Split the meat mixture in 2 equal halves. Place them separately on the cooking sheet and form 2 round crusts, about ½-inch thick.
Bake until meat is cooked through and golden, about 20-22 minutes. Remove from oven and heat broiler.
Spread a generous layer of sauce on each meat crust, leaving a small border around the pizza. Top with onion slices, arugula, bacon or pancetta and mozzarella slices.
Broil until cheese is melted, about 4 minutes. Garnish with more Parmesan cheese and serve.
