How to Make BBQ Chicken Flatbread

Step 1: Prep the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil.

Step 2: Assemble the Flatbreads

Lay out flatbreads and lightly toast them in the oven for 3–4 minutes.

Remove and spread BBQ sauce evenly on top.

Layer with shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, red onions, and more sauce if desired.

Step 3: Bake

Return flatbreads to the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 4: Finish and Serve

Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

Sprinkle with chopped cilantro, slice, and serve warm.

What to Serve It With

Side salad with ranch or vinaigrette

Sweet potato fries or chips

Pickled jalapeños or coleslaw

Fresh fruit skewers for a light finish

Variations / Substitutions

Use Buffalo Sauce Instead – For spicy buffalo chicken flatbread

Add Bacon Crumbles – For extra smoky crunch

Make It Vegetarian – Use roasted chickpeas or jackfruit

Swap Cheese – Try smoked gouda, cheddar, or pepper jack

Gluten-Free – Use gluten-free flatbreads or tortillas

Storage & Leftovers

Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days

Reheat: In the oven at 375°F for 5–7 minutes until warm and crisp

Freezer: Freeze unbaked assembled flatbreads, then bake directly from frozen
