Chizza

So pizza is a nice thing but it's not paleo.  I've seen loads of recipes for meatza but they are big slabs of meatloaf with a few toppings - nothing like the pizza I used to have. Having discovered that my system doesn't go mental when I have a small amount of hard cheese I was very keen to have some thing to sprinkle it on. I came up with the idea of using a flattened chicken breast* as the base. The butcher butterflied and smacked the hell out of the chicken breast for me and I laid out in the baking tray then spread it with harissa - I would have used tomato paste but I didn't have any!  I topped it with sliced mushrooms and halved baby plum tomatoes and a grating of Cheddar. It looked more like a rustic thin crust pizza or flatbread pizza than meatloaf so I was happy. I cooked it for 20 mins at 200c, it's cut in half coz I wanted to check the chicken was done. Very tasty and the chicken doesn't overwhelm the toppings

*I'm sure someone else has but I thought of it on my own.

  1. I have since done chique monsieur as well ...... flattened chicken breast sandwiching a slice of Han and a slice of jarlsberg with a slice of jarlsberg on top. Super yum.
