Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large boneless skinless chicken breast cut into small bite-sized pieces or chicken thighs see note 1
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp sea salt flakes
  • ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 4 flatbreads see note 2
  • 60 ml store-bought BBQ sauce or homemade
  • 150 g shredded mozzarella
  • 1 small red onion finely sliced
  • 1 small capsicum bell pepper finely sliced
  • 1 tbsp freshly chopped coriander cilantro to garnish optional see note 3

Instructions

  1. Toss the chicken pieces with olive oil and spices until evenly coated.
  2. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 6 minutes until browned and fully cooked, then set aside.
  3. Preheat your oven to 200°C fan-forced or 220°C conventional and line baking trays with parchment paper.
  4. Place flatbreads on the trays and spread a thin layer of BBQ sauce over each one.
  5. Evenly distribute shredded mozzarella on top of the sauce, then layer the cooked chicken, sliced red onion, and bell pepper.
  6. Bake in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes until the cheese melts and the flatbreads turn crispy and golden on the edges. Swap tray positions halfway if using two trays.
  7. Remove from oven, sprinkle with coriander if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Note 1 – You need about 300 g 10½ oz of chicken breast so use either one large breast or two smaller ones
  • Note 2 – In the photo I have used Turkish bread which I cut in half then halved horizontally to make four large pieces However any flatbread would work as well as pizza bases Lebanese bread pita bread naan or focaccia In case you want to make your own flatbread try my 2 Ingredient Flatbread
  • Note 3 – If your family is not a fan of coriander cilantro replace it with another fresh herb of your choice such as oregano thyme basil or rosemary or use dried
