Ingredients
  

  •  
    1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 ½ oz Parmesan finely grated, about 3/4 cup, divided
  •  
    kosher salt and black pepper to taste
  •  
    cooking spray
  • ¼ cup marinara sauce
  •  
    2 oz shredded mozzarella about 1/2 cup
  • red pepper flakes optional
  • fresh basil leaves for serving

Instructions
 

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the center. Mix the chicken, garlic, Italian seasoning and 1/2 cup Parmesan with salt and pepper.
  2. Spray a parchment-lined pan and shape the mixture into a round about 1/2 inch thick. Bake 20 to 22 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
  3. Spread the marinara over the crust and top with mozzarella. Transfer to a broiler-safe pan without parchment and broil for 3 to 4 minutes, watching closely until the cheese melts.

Notes

Shape the chicken mixture to an even thickness so the crust cooks through.
