A quick and easy crispy BBQ chicken flatbread topped with a tangy homemade ranch drizzle, perfect for casual gatherings or a satisfying weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pre-made flatbreads or naan (8-inch diameter each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast or rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • A handful fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, toss the shredded chicken with 1/2 cup BBQ sauce until evenly coated.
  3. Brush the flatbreads lightly with olive oil on both sides.
  4. Place the flatbreads on the lined baking sheet. Spread the BBQ chicken evenly over each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Scatter thinly sliced red onions over the chicken, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously on top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown and the edges of the flatbread are crispy.
  7. While baking, whisk together ranch dressing and fresh lemon juice in a small bowl.
  8. Remove the flatbreads from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes.
  9. Drizzle the ranch mixture over the flatbreads in a zigzag pattern.
  10. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired, slice into wedges, and serve immediately.

Notes

To keep the flatbread crispy, pre-bake the flatbread alone for 3-4 minutes before adding toppings. Avoid overloading with BBQ sauce to prevent sogginess. Drizzle ranch after baking to keep it fresh and tangy. Reheat leftovers in a toaster oven or oven to maintain crispness.
