Ingredients
Scale
Flatbreads & Base
- 2 flatbreads or naan (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Cheese & Toppings
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded provolone or fontina cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
Finishing Touches
- 1 tablespoon hot honey (plus more for drizzling)
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Fresh chopped parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place the flatbreads on a baking sheet, ready for assembly.
- Oil & Garlic: Brush each flatbread evenly with olive oil. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with a small drizzle of olive oil, then spread this garlicky mixture evenly over each flatbread to infuse flavor into the base.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and provolone (or fontina) cheese evenly over the garlic-oiled flatbreads for a cheesy, melty layer.
- Layer Toppings: Distribute the cooked chicken and thinly sliced red onion evenly across both flatbreads to create a balanced topping.
- Drizzle & Spice: Drizzle each flatbread with a tablespoon of hot honey, adding a touch of sweet heat, then sprinkle red pepper flakes if you prefer extra spice.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted and the flatbread edges turn golden and crisp.
- Finish & Serve: Remove from the oven, drizzle with additional hot honey for extra flavor, and garnish with fresh parsley or basil. Slice into pieces and serve warm for best taste.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken is a convenient shortcut and works perfectly for this recipe.
- To make this dish vegetarian, omit the chicken and substitute with roasted vegetables or mushrooms.
- If you don’t have hot honey, use regular honey combined with a pinch of cayenne pepper to achieve a similar spicy-sweet flavor.
