Base ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked shredded chicken Moist and tender
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce Adds sweetness and tang
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese Melts smoothly
  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese Adds a bold flavor
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion Crunchy and slightly sweet
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or parsley For freshness
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or garlic butter Optional, enhances richness

Optional toppings

  • crispy fried onions Optional, offers extra crunch

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to a suitable temperature.
  • Prepare the flatbreads or naan by placing them on a baking sheet.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken with BBQ sauce. Gently stir until the chicken is thoroughly coated.
  • Distribute the BBQ chicken evenly over the flatbreads.
  • Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
  • Add the sharp cheddar cheese on top of the mozzarella.
  • Generously scatter the thinly sliced red onion on top of the cheeses.
  • If desired, drizzle a bit of olive oil or garlic butter on top.
  • If using optional toppings like pickled jalapeños, bacon bits, or crispy fried onions, sprinkle them over the dish now.

Baking

  • Bake the assembled flatbreads in the preheated oven until the cheeses are bubbly and the edges of the flatbreads are golden brown.
  • Once baked, remove the flatbreads from the oven and let them cool for a moment.
  • Finally, garnish with chopped fresh cilantro or parsley.

Notes

Preheat your oven fully for the best texture. Customize toppings to suit your taste. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days, or freeze before baking for up to two months.
