1 Large Egg
1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

2 tablespoons Rao's Pizza Sauce
2 ounces fresh Mozzarella cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Drain the canned chicken and get out as much water as you can.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the chicken on it. Bake for 10 minutes at 350 to get moisture out.
Add parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning and egg to a bowl and mix.
Remove chicken from the oven and allow to cool then mix it in with the egg and cheese mixture. Also turn the oven up to 500 degrees.
Line the baking sheet with new parchment paper and spread the mixture evenly and in a circle on top. About 8 to 10 inches in diameter. Like a thin crust pizza.
Bake the crust for another 8 - 10 minutes at 500 degrees. It will look a little golden brown.
Remove the crust from the oven and add 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce, spread evenly. Add slices of mozzarella cheese. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes at 500 degrees. Dependent upon your toppings.
