- Preheat oven to 425°F. With parchment paper, line a sheet(baking) and lightly oil the parchment paper.
- In a bowl(large), whisk the eggs. Stir in the pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, salt, and shredded chicken and mix well to completely combine.
- In a mound, place the chicken mixture on the oiled parchment paper. Making sure there’s no air between the chicken, pat and press the chicken together to flatten and shape the crust into a round/square shape about 1/4-inch thin.
- For about 15-20 minutes, bake the chicken crust or until it firms up and is lightly golden around the edges. Take out from the oven and for about 5-10 minutes, allow the crust to cool so it can become a little more firm.
