Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 2 flatbreads (lavash, pita, or pre-made pizza crust)

Topping

  • 200 g cooked or roasted chicken, shredded
  • 4–5 tbsp your favorite BBQ sauce
  • 100 g shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mix of cheddar and mozzarella)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 small sweet pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 1–2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro or parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: In a bowl, toss the shredded cooked chicken with the BBQ sauce until evenly coated, ensuring every bite has that smoky, tangy flavor.
  2. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 200°C (about 400°F) to get it ready for baking the flatbread.
  3. Assemble the flatbread: Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet or pizza stone. Evenly spread the BBQ chicken mixture onto each flatbread, followed by the sliced red onions and sweet pepper if using. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  4. Bake the flatbread: Put the flatbreads in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are crispy.
  5. Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley. Slice into portions and serve warm for the best taste experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute flatbread with pita or naan for a different texture.
  • Use leftover roasted chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Adjust the amount of BBQ sauce based on your preferred tanginess and sweetness.
  • The sweet pepper is optional but adds a nice crunch and color.
  • For extra heat, add sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of chili flakes before baking.
