Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads or naan
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1/4 cup sliced jalapeños for a spicy kick
Feel free to substitute the mozzarella with cheddar or a cheese blend for more depth, and if you’re out of fresh cilantro, parsley works as a great alternative!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
- Brush the flatbreads lightly with olive oil and season them with a pinch of salt and pepper. This step reminds me of helping my abuela when she would prepare tortillas with just the right amount of seasoning — a simple touch that makes a big difference.
- Spread a generous layer of BBQ sauce over each flatbread.
- Evenly distribute the shredded chicken over the sauce, followed by the red onion slices.
- Top with shredded mozzarella cheese, ensuring it covers the ingredients well.
- Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet or directly on the pizza stone and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh cilantro, adding jalapeños if desired.
- Let cool slightly before slicing and serving, savoring the aroma that fills your kitchen.
