BBQ Chicken Flatbread
This BBQ chicken flatbread is a fast and flavorful flatbread pizza layered with tangy BBQ chicken, melty cheese, and fresh veggies.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads , lavash, naan, pita or pre-made pizza crust
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken , shredded
- 3-5 Tablespoons BBQ sauce
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese , or mix of cheddar and mozzarella
- 1 small red onion , thinly sliced
- 1 small red bell pepper , thinly sliced
- 1-2 Tablespoons parsley , or cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 390°F (200°C). If you're using a store-bought pizza crust, check the package for specific baking instructions.
- Prep the base: Lay the flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Mix the chicken: In a bowl, toss about 1 ½ cups of shredded cooked chicken with 3 tablespoons of BBQ sauce. Let it sit for about 5 minutes so the flavor soaks in.
- Add the sauce: Spread 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce on each flatbread. You can add a little extra if you like it saucy!
- Layer the toppings: Top each flatbread with the BBQ chicken, then sprinkle with about 1 cup of shredded mozzarella (or a mix of mozzarella and cheddar). Add thin slices of red onion and sweet pepper if using.
- Bake: Bake the flatbreads for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown, and the edges are nice and crispy.
- Finish and serve: Let the flatbreads cool for a couple of minutes, then sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro or parsley. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a squeeze of lime, if you like.
Notes
I used one large lavash flatbread. I often buy the one at Aldi supermarket.
