Can I use chicken fillet instead of breast for diet chicken pizza?

Yes, chicken fillet works great. It's even more tender than breast, but keep in mind that it's higher in fat, so the calorie count will increase slightly.

Why does the chicken base fall apart when slicing diet chicken pizza?

You probably didn't grind the chicken enough or didn't add the egg. The egg acts as a binder. It's also important to press the base firmly onto the baking sheet and let it bake completely before adding the toppings.

Can I substitute tomato paste in diet chicken pizza with something else?

Yes, you can use fresh crushed tomatoes or sugar-free tomato sauce instead of tomato paste. This will give a fresher, more natural flavor.

How many calories are in one slice of diet chicken pizza?

The pizza has 229 kcal per 100 g. The total weight is about 580 g, so one medium slice (about 100–120 g) contains around 229–275 kcal.

Can I freeze diet chicken pizza for later?

Yes, you can freeze the pizza. Let it cool completely, cut it into portions, wrap each piece in plastic wrap, and place in the freezer. It will keep for up to 2 months. Reheat without thawing in the oven at 180°C for about 15–20 minutes.

SIMPLE PROCESS

Step by step recipe

The secret to this pizza is a properly made chicken base. It's important to blend the chicken breast until it becomes a paste-like consistency so the base is uniform and doesn't fall apart. Bake it until golden brown, then add the toppings in layers: first tomato paste for moisture, then onions, tomatoes, and sausages, and finally mayonnaise and cheese for an appetizing golden crust.

Step 1

Grind the chicken

In a blender, grind the chicken breast until you get a smooth, paste-like consistency. Add the egg and salt to taste, and mix thoroughly.

Step 2

Prepare the baking sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease it with vegetable oil.

Step 3

Form the base

Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the baking sheet, shaping it into a round or rectangular flatbread.

Step 4

Bake the base

Place the baking sheet in an oven preheated to 180°C and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.

Step 5

Add the toppings

Spread tomato paste over the base. Arrange the sliced and scalded onions, tomato rounds, and sliced hunting sausages on top.

Step 6

Bake with toppings

Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

Step 7

Add the cheese crust

Spread mayonnaise over the pizza and generously sprinkle with grated semi-hard cheese.

Step 8

Final baking

Bake the pizza for another 10 minutes until the cheese melts and forms a golden crust.

CHEF'S TIP

Secret to a juicy base

To prevent the chicken base from drying out, don't overbake it. 20–25 minutes at 180°C is enough for it to be fully cooked.

How to prevent sticking

Always use parchment paper and grease it with vegetable oil — this way the base will easily come off the baking sheet.

Perfect toppings

Scald the onions with boiling water before adding them — this removes bitterness and makes their flavor milder and sweeter.

SUBSTITUTIONS

Add your taste

With chicken and mushrooms Add sautéed champignons along with the onions — the pizza will become even more aromatic and filling.
Spicy version Add thin rings of hot chili pepper to the toppings and replace regular mayonnaise with spicy sauce.
With mozzarella cheese Instead of semi-hard cheese, use mozzarella — it will give a stretchy texture and a more delicate flavor.
Without mayonnaise Replace mayonnaise with sour cream or natural yogurt — the calorie count will be even lower.

HOW TO STORE

How to store diet chicken pizza

Diet chicken pizza is best served immediately after cooking, while the cheese crust is still stretchy and the base stays juicy. If you have leftovers, let them cool completely, transfer to an airtight container, and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 160°C for 10–12 minutes or in a dry skillet with a lid — this will restore the crispy crust.
