Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 soft, thin flatbreads
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1/2 cup tangy, smoky BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prep the Chicken and Ingredients: Shred or dice pre-cooked chicken and thinly slice the red onion to prepare for quick assembly of the flatbreads.
  2. Warm the Flatbreads: Lightly toast the flatbreads in a skillet or oven until edges are slightly crisp, ensuring they are sturdy enough to hold the toppings.
  3. Assemble the Flatbreads: Spread a generous layer of BBQ sauce evenly over each flatbread, then top with shredded chicken, sliced red onions, and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.
  4. Bake Until Melty and Crispy: Place assembled flatbreads under a preheated broiler or in a hot oven for 5-7 minutes until cheese melts, bubbles, and the flatbread edges turn golden brown.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro or parsley, slice, and serve warm for the best experience.

Notes

  • Toast flatbreads before adding toppings to prevent sogginess and maintain crispiness.
  • Use just enough BBQ sauce to coat the flatbread and avoid soggy textures.
  • Shred chicken evenly to ensure balanced bites of protein.
  • Watch carefully during broiling to prevent burning cheese or flatbread edges.
  • Add fresh herbs after baking to maintain vibrant flavor and color.
