This Easy BBQ Chicken Flatbread is a fast and flavorful meal combining smoky-sweet barbecue sauce, tender chicken, melty cheese, and crispy flatbread. Perfect for weeknight dinners, parties, or game day snacks.

Ingredients

  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
  • 2 flatbreads or naan
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce (smoky-sweet preferred)
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing flatbread)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place flatbreads on a baking sheet and lightly brush with olive oil.
  3. Spread a generous layer of barbecue sauce over each flatbread.
  4. Top with cooked chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, and sliced red onions.
  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are crisp.
  6. Remove from oven and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
  7. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken to save prep time.
  • Substitute chicken with roasted vegetables or plant-based meat for a vegetarian version.
  • Try other cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack for variation.
  • Add sliced jalapeños for extra heat.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to keep flatbread crisp.
