    1 Preheat oven to 200°C. Combine lemon zest, lemon juice and paprika in a medium-sized shallow glass or ceramic dish. Add chicken fillets to dish and turn to coat. Cover dish with plastic wrap and leave to marinate for 10 minutes.

    2 Meanwhile, set a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and spray with oil. Add eggplant and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until golden. Remove eggplant from pan and set aside.

    3 Drain chicken of excess marinade. Return frying pan to a medium-high heat and spray with oil. Add chicken and cook each side for 1-2 minutes or until golden. Chop chicken roughly in pieces.

    4 Spread cauliflower crusts with an even layer of tomato paste. Top crusts with chopped chicken, reserved eggplant, baby spinach and capsicum then scatter with mozzarella.

    5 Place pizzas in oven and cook for 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and golden.

    6 Cut pizzas in slices, garnish with extra lemon zest and parsley then serve.
