Looking for a delicious low-carb alternative to your favorite pizza? This low-carb skillet pizza is a perfect option! It's easy to make, packed with flavor, and uses just a handful of ingredients, making it a convenient and quick meal for any pizza lover who's watching their carb intake.
Instructions:
- Begin by selecting a small, non-stick skillet. Preheat it over medium heat. Ensure the skillet is well-seasoned or coated with a tiny bit of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Once the skillet is hot, evenly sprinkle the mozzarella cheese into the skillet. Spread it out to cover the entire bottom, ensuring a thin, even layer.
- Let the mozzarella cook undisturbed for about 3-5 minutes, or until it begins to bubble and the edges start to brown and crisp up.
- Spread the canned tomatoes evenly on top of the cooking mozzarella cheese base.
- Sprinkle the garlic powder across the tomatoes to add a punch of flavor.
- Arrange the pepperoni slices on top of the tomatoes and garlic powder. Space them evenly for the best distribution.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the top of all your ingredients.
- Allow the pizza to cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and the edges of your pizza are a lovely golden brown. The mozzarella should be crispy at the edges but still gooey in the center.
- Once cooked, carefully slide your low carb skillet pizza onto a plate using a spatula. Let it cool for a minute to let the cheese set properly and become firmer.
- Slice your skillet pizza into desired portions and enjoy immediately!
Tips:
- Use a non-stick skillet to ensure the cheese forms a crispy crust and doesn't stick.
- Feel free to add other low-carb toppings like mushrooms, olives, or bell peppers to customize your pizza.
- If you prefer a thicker 'crust,' you can increase the amount of mozzarella cheese slightly.
- For a spicier kick, sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top before serving.
- Keep an eye on the heat to prevent the cheese from burning; medium heat usually works best.
In just a few minutes, you can enjoy a hot and satisfying low-carb skillet pizza that's sure to satisfy your pizza cravings. This dish is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a snack any time of the day. Enjoy your delicious low-carb pizza without any guilt!
