Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread Base
- 2 flatbreads (about 14.5 oz total)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
Toppings
- ½ cup buffalo wing sauce
- 1½ cups diced cooked chicken (rotisserie or leftover chicken)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- â…“ cup blue cheese dressing
Garnish
- â…“ cup sliced green onions
Instructions
- Preheat Oven & Prepare Flatbreads: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the flatbreads on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking. Lightly brush the edges of the flatbreads with olive oil to help them crisp up nicely during baking. Bake them for about 5 minutes to get a slightly crisp base.
- Assemble the Flatbreads: Remove the pre-baked flatbreads from the oven. Spread the buffalo wing sauce evenly over each flatbread, ensuring a spicy and flavorful base. Next, scatter the diced cooked chicken evenly on top, followed by a generous layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Finish by drizzling blue cheese dressing over the assembled toppings.
- Bake Until Golden: Return the flatbreads to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. For an extra crispy cheese topping, switch your oven to broil for the last 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Garnish & Serve: Once baked, remove the flatbreads from the oven and sprinkle sliced green onions over the top for a fresh, sharp contrast. Optionally, drizzle additional buffalo sauce and blue cheese dressing if desired. Slice into portions and serve hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can use rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken for convenience.
- If you prefer less spice, reduce the buffalo wing sauce amount or use a milder sauce.
- Blue cheese dressing can be substituted with ranch dressing if preferred.
- To make it gluten-free, replace flatbreads with gluten-free flatbread alternatives.
- Keep an eye on the flatbreads when broiling to prevent burning as broil times can vary by oven.
