Ingredients
2 flatbreads or naan
1 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1/3 cup buffalo wing sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
Ranch or blue cheese dressing for drizzling
1 tablespoon olive oil
Fresh parsley finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven during preheating.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken with buffalo sauce and coat evenly.
3. Brush both sides of flatbread lightly with olive oil. Bake for 3–4 minutes to toast.
4. Top flatbread with mozzarella, buffalo chicken, and optional blue cheese crumbles.
5. Return to oven and bake for 8–10 minutes until cheese is melted and edges are golden.
6. Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing. Sprinkle green onions and parsley.
7. Let rest for 1–2 minutes. Slice and serve while hot.
Notes
Toasting the flatbread before adding toppings keeps the base from becoming soggy.
Use freshly shredded mozzarella for the best melt and texture.
For less heat, use a milder buffalo sauce or reduce the quantity.
