Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 pieces of naan bread (or pita bread, lavash, or store-bought pizza crusts)
- BBQ sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded rotisserie chicken or diced grilled chicken breasts)
- 1 cup low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- Fresh cilantro (for garnish)
- Optional add-ins: jalapeño slices, bell peppers, crumbled cooked bacon, ranch dressing, lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and place the flatbreads on a baking sheet.
- Spread a layer of BBQ sauce over each flatbread, going almost to the edges.
- Evenly distribute the shredded or diced cooked chicken over the BBQ sauce on each flatbread.
- Scatter the thinly sliced red onion over the chicken.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese generously over the chicken and onions.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbread are golden brown and crisp.
- Transfer the hot flatbread pizzas to a cutting board, sprinkle fresh cilantro on top, and slice into portions.
