Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 high-protein flatbreads (protein naan or lavash-style flatbread)
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, chopped (about 1012 oz)
  • 1/3 cup BBQ sauce, plus extra for drizzling
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (canned/drained or frozen/thawed)
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional, for crispier crust)
  • Optional: pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or sliced jalapeño

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. In a bowl, toss chopped chicken with BBQ sauce until coated.
  3. Place flatbreads on the baking sheet. (Optional: brush edges lightly with olive oil for extra crispness.)
  4. Sprinkle each flatbread with mozzarella, then top with BBQ chicken and corn.
  5. Bake 10–12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden.
  6. Top with red onion and cilantro. Drizzle with extra BBQ sauce. Slice and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use leftover or rotisserie chicken for quicker prep.
  • Adjust BBQ sauce quantity to taste.
  • For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes after baking.
