Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads (about 8-inch each; naan, pita, or pre-baked flatbread)
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped (about 250g)
- 1/3 cup buffalo sauce (80ml)
- 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (30g; nonfat or 2%)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (100g)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (50g)
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion (30g; optional)
- Ranch or blue cheese dressing, for drizzling
- 1–2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro or chives
- 1 teaspoon olive oil (5ml)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven now.
- Place flatbreads on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush each lightly with olive oil.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine cooked chicken, buffalo sauce, and Greek yogurt. Stir until well coated.
- Top each flatbread evenly with the buffalo chicken mixture. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top, then add red onion slices.
- Bake on the center rack for 10-12 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly and edges are golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 2 minutes. Drizzle lightly with ranch or blue cheese dressing and sprinkle with chopped cilantro or chives.
- Slice with a sharp knife or pizza cutter and serve warm.
Notes
Don’t overload the flatbread with toppings to avoid sogginess. Use parchment paper for easy cleanup. Preheat the oven fully for a crisp crust. Mix Greek yogurt into the buffalo sauce for extra creaminess and protein. Let the flatbread rest before slicing for cleaner cuts. For gluten-free or dairy-free, use appropriate substitutes. Leftovers reheat best in a toaster oven or standard oven.
