- 1 chicken breast
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon oregano or Herbs de Provence
- 50 cubic centimeters of tomato sauce

Extend it and give it a rounded or rectangular shape to form your keto pizza to your liking. Of course, make sure that it is as thin as seen in the image.
- Cook the chicken pizza base at 200ºC for 15 minutes, or until golden.

- If you wanted, you could modify the topping of this keto chicken pizza by adding spinach, arugula, grilled vegetables, caramelized onions, bell peppers and ham, etc.
- Now you can serve and enjoy your keto chicken pizza with a delicious salad
