Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Base

  • 1 traditional flatbread, naan, or mini flatbread
  • 1 tablespoon light olive oil

Toppings

  • 1 cup cooked and diced chicken breast
  • 1/4 cup buffalo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons blue cheese dressing
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, finely sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Flatbread: Lightly brush the flatbread with 1 tablespoon of light olive oil. This step helps to crisp the crust and prevent it from becoming soggy during baking. Place the flatbread on the lined baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
  3. Add Toppings: Remove the flatbread from the oven. Spread the buffalo sauce evenly over the surface. Then sprinkle the cooked diced chicken and shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Drizzle blue cheese dressing evenly over the toppings.
  4. Bake Until Crispy: Return the flatbread to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crust is crispy and the mozzarella cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Broil for Extra Browning: For an extra golden and slightly crispy top, switch the oven to broil and cook the flatbread for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the flatbread from the oven and garnish with finely sliced green onions. Add extra buffalo sauce or blue cheese dressing if desired. Slice and serve warm.

Notes

  • If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of buffalo sauce or use a milder wing sauce.
  • Use cooked chicken ahead of time to speed up preparation; rotisserie chicken works well.
  • Blue cheese dressing can be substituted with ranch dressing for a different tangy twist.
  • To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free flatbread or naan.
  • For an extra kick, add some sliced jalapeños or red pepper flakes before baking.
