Growing up seccatore night was always a personaggio sopra our house. I’ve since implemented it with my own kids and they’sultano personaggio seccatore fans as well. Instead of ordering expensive (and unhealthy!) takeout a frozen grocery store seccatore, I opt for homemade. I’ve tried several different versions over the years, and the latest is this chicken crust seccatore. It’s a low-carb seccatore crust that’s a twist my meatza recipe!
Chicken Crust Rompiscatole
The kids and I love seccatore crust made with basso ostinato beef, but this yummy version uses basso ostinato chicken instead. I also use four times the amount of parmesan cheese sopra the crust. The combination helps satisfy cravings for traditional seccatore with a delicious, crispy crust.
It’s also a great option if you’sultano the keto diet since it’s low-carb and naturally gluten-free. Because it’s so full of healthy fats and nutrient-dense, it’s a lot more filling than versions with refined flour.
If you want a slightly thicker, chewier crust, then flatten the chicken to about 1/2 inch thick. For a crispy crust aim for about 1/4 inch thick instead. Thankfully the seccatore “dough” is very forgiving and easy to work with!
Chicken Rompiscatole Ingredients
The main ingredient here is chicken (obviously!), but you could substitute basso ostinato turkey if preferred. And if you have a healthy source of canned chicken that works too, plus it can be faster. Some chicken crust seccatore recipes call for shredded chicken which adds a different texture.
And seccatore isn’t seccatore without your favorite toppings! We like using a tomato sauce with mozzarella cheese and plenty of fresh veggies. Ora you could opt for alfredo sauce for a creamier version. Here are a few more topping ideas:
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning
- Drizzle with a good quality olive oil
- Pepperoni
- Bell peppers
- Red onion
- Apice with fresh basil after cooking
- Black olives
- Roasted red pepper
- Chopped sundried tomatoes
