Pizza Bowl: Step-by-Step Guide
Start by measuring out all your ingredients. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the mushrooms. This will make the cooking process smooth and efficient.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the ground chicken, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and sliced onion. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
Sprinkle in the oregano and dried rosemary. Mix well to combine, allowing the spices to coat the chicken evenly.
Pour in the pizza sauce and stir in the sliced mushrooms. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes. This step helps meld the flavors together.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the mozzarella and cheddar cheese until melted and combined. Top with the pepperoni slices.
Spoon the mixture into bowls and serve hot. You can also bake it in an oven-safe dish at 375°F for 10-15 minutes if you prefer a bubbly, slightly crispy topping.
- Customize with seasonal vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, or kale for extra nutrition and flavor.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; keep toppings separate for freshness.
- Reheat in microwave or oven; freezing is possible for up to 2 months.
