- In a large bowl, mix the ground chicken, cumin, cayenne, ginger, cinnamon, lemon juice and salt. Press chicken mix into an eight-inch pizza pan. Cover with plastic wrap and press again or use a rolling pin to make the chicken as flat and even as possible. Remove the plastic wrap.
- Bake chicken crust in a 400 degree F oven for 20 minutes, chicken crust will begin to brown.
- Remove from oven and spread pizza sauce over the chicken crust, leaving a 1/4-inch gap around the edges.
