Ingredients:

3/4 cauliflower
750g
1 egg
50g
1/3 cup cheddar cheese
33g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
4 chicken breasts
470g
1 tsp chili powder
5g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 zucchini
300g
1/2 cup red pepper
72g
1/3 cup feta cheese
72g
1.50 cups cherry tomatoes
270g
3 cups spinach
90g
1 tbsp vinegar
16g

Instructions:

2. Prepare the Cauliflower:
- Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until they achieve a rice-like consistency.
3. Steam the Cauliflower:
- Place the processed cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for about 5-8 minutes until soft. Allow it to cool slightly.
4. Remove Excess Moisture:
- Transfer the steamed cauliflower into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure a crispy crust.
5. Mix the Crust Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, egg, cheddar cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well until a dough forms.
6. Form the Crust:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with olive oil. Place the cauliflower mixture on the sheet and shape it into a pizza crust, about 1/4-inch thick.
7. Bake the Crust:
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
9. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Slice the zucchini into thin rounds.
- Chop the red pepper into small pieces.
- Halve the cherry tomatoes.
10. Sauté the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the zucchini and red pepper to the skillet, and cook for about 5 minutes until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
11. Assemble the Pizza:
- Remove the baked crust from the oven.
- Evenly spread the sautéed vegetables over the crust.
12. Add Chicken and Cheese:
- Distribute the sliced chili chicken over the vegetables.
- Top with halved cherry tomatoes, crumbled feta cheese, and fresh spinach.
14. Finish with Vinegar:
- Drizzle the baked pizza with a tablespoon of vinegar for a tangy finish.
15. Serve:
- Slice the pizza and serve hot. Enjoy your healthy and delicious cauliflower pizza with chili chicken and feta!

Tips:

- Ensure the cauliflower is grated finely and squeeze out as much water as possible to get a crispier crust.

- Use parchment paper on your baking tray to prevent the cauliflower crust from sticking.

- Pre-cook the chicken with chili powder and garlic to infuse it with more flavor.

- Bake the cauliflower crust separately before adding toppings for a sturdier base.

- Feel free to add more vegetables like mushrooms or olives to enhance the flavor and nutritional value.

- Monitor the baking time as it may vary depending on your oven's performance.
