MEATZA DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, mix ground chicken and salt.

Add 4 Tablespoons of water to a large pan along with the onion slices. Cook over medium heat, occasionally stirring, until the water has evaporated and the onions begin to brown on the bottom of the pan (about 8 minutes). Add another 4 tbsp of water to the pan and let it cook off again, stirring occasionally. The onions should be nicely browned and caramelised.

Press chicken mix into a 20cm 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 in a 200? C oven for 20 minutes; chicken crust will begin to brown.

Remove from oven and spread BBQ sauce over the crust; push sauce evenly around the chicken crust, leaving about 1.5cm from the edge with no dressing (so you will be able to hold your pizza slice).

Evenly distribute caramelised onions and apples – bake another 15 minutes. Add rocket and return to oven for 4-5 more minutes. Serve while hot.
