The Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener
assembly is a runtime reference in WebApp.Start

Install the package:
PM> Install-Package Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener
Install the Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener package from Nuget using:
PM> Install-Package Microsoft.Owin.Host.HttpListener
(unlike an earlier answer you should avoid using -IncludePrerelease
in production code)
