Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400ºF/200ºC. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, grated parmesan, eggs, and spices (garlic powder, chili flakes, and Italian seasoning). Mix well to combine.
Spread the mixture over the baking sheet in a thin, even circular layer (about 1/4-1/2 inch thick), resembling a pizza.
Bake the crust at 400ºF/200ºC for about 40 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Then, set it aside to cool over a wire rack.
Toss the chopped lettuce with Caesar dressing in a large bowl, coating it well. If wanted, keep a spoonful of the dressing to the side.
Spread the extra dressing directly over the pizza crust. Cover it with the lettuce and top with the shaved parmesan and croutons. Slices and enjoy!

Notes

To store: It's best to store the chicken crust pizza without any toppings. Place it in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for three days. The Caesar salad is best enjoyed right after preparing.

To freeze: Freeze the crust without any toppings. Keep it in an airtight container in the freezer for one month. Thaw in the fridge before baking as usual (adding a few minutes if needed)
