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.

Notes

  • 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.
