Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, shredded mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, egg, baking powder, salt, and melted coconut oil. Mix until a dough forms.
3. Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out into a circular pizza shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
4. Transfer the rolled dough to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
5. While the crust is baking, prepare the topping by mixing shredded chicken, chopped Thai basil, cilantro, lime juice, and coconut aminos in a bowl.
6. Remove the crust from the oven and spread the chicken mixture evenly over the pizza base.
7. Top with sliced red bell pepper and sprinkle with chili flakes.
8. Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, until the toppings are heated through.
9. Allow the pizza to cool for a few minutes before slicing, then serve warm.
