Ingredients
Scale
Flatbread Base
- 2 (7-ounce) flatbreads (about 200 grams each)
Toppings
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (use your favourite variety)
- 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese (sliced or torn, or 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese)
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 2 to 3 fresh baby bella (cremini) mushrooms (thinly sliced)
- 1 cup chopped cooked chicken
- 1/4 cup sliced pickled banana peppers
- 1/4 cup baby arugula
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it’s hot enough for a perfect bake.
- Prepare Flatbreads: Place the flatbreads evenly spaced on a large sheet pan to make assembling the pizzas convenient.
- Add Base Sauce: Evenly spread 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce across the two flatbreads, ensuring each is well-coated with the tangy goodness.
- Layer Toppings: Distribute the fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced red onion, baby bella mushrooms, cooked chicken, and sliced pickled banana peppers evenly over the BBQ sauce on both flatbreads.
- Optional Sauce Drizzle: For extra flavor, drizzle additional BBQ sauce over the toppings as desired.
- Bake the Pizzas: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the flatbread is heated through.
- Add Fresh Arugula & Serve: Remove the pizzas from the oven, top with fresh baby arugula for a peppery bite, cut into pieces, and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza!
