Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 flatbread crust readymade
- 1 chicken breast
- 6 Ounces bacon
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 Bag shredded mozzarella or a mozzarella provolone mix
- 1/2 Cup BBQ sauce
- cilantro fresh
- green onions
- salt
- black Pepper
Instructions
- Season the chicken breast thoroughly with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Cut bacon into 1-inch pieces and fry in a pan until cooked through.
- Remove the cooked bacon from the pan and drain most of the grease from the pan, reserving a bit in the pan to cook the chicken with.
- Using the same pan with the reserved bacon grease, cook chicken breast until the center reaches 165 degrees F.
- Set the chicken aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
- Slice the red onion thinly, and set aside.
- Using a peeler, peel your carrot, then continue to create thin slices of the carrot using your peeler.
- Chop up 2 to 3 green onions, and remove the leaves from a few sprigs of cilantro.
- When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pull it apart into chunks, then mix in a bowl with a couple spoonfuls of your BBQ sauce.
- Take your flatbread out and place on a cutting board or pizza peel. Brush the top of the flatbread with BBQ sauce.
- Sprinkle a light layer of cheese over the sauce, then cover with the BBQ chicken pieces.
- Cover the chicken with a layer of the cooked bacon, then a thick layer of cheese.
- Add the onions and the carrots to the top of the pizza.
- Carefully transfer your flatbread directly to a rack in the center of your preheated oven
- Cook for approx 6 or 7 minutes, checking on the pizza frequently - it may need more or less time depending on your oven.
- When the flatbread is ready, very carefully remove from the oven and place on a cutting board.
- Top the flatbread with green onions, cilantro, fresh black pepper, and a drizzle of BBQ sauce, then slice and serve hot.
Notes
- This flatbread also tastes great when cooked on a high rack in a grill, just be extra cautious not to burn the bottom.
- For an extra kick add pickled jalapeño peppers or pepperoncini.
- Any cheese will work great with this flatbread, a mozzarella/provolone mix is traditional although sharp cheddar is delicious, and pepper jack will give it a little extra heat.
