Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Transfer the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a flat, round crust, approximately 10-12 inches in diameter.
  4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
  5. While the crust is baking, toss romaine lettuce with Caesar dressing and grated Parmesan cheese in a large mixing bowl.
  6. After the crust has baked and cooled slightly, spread the Caesar salad mixture evenly on top.
  7. If desired, add additional cooked chicken or crispy chicken bacon bits on top and drizzle more Caesar dressing.
  8. Carefully slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately while warm.
