Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delicious flatbread pizza:
For the Flatbread Pizza
- 2 flatbreads or naan breads (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
Pro Tip: Use leftover rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken for added flavor and convenience! - ½ cup Alfredo sauce
For a richer flavor, opt for a high-quality or homemade Alfredo sauce. - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup fresh spinach (optional, for a touch of greens)
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Optional Toppings
- Fresh basil leaves
- Crushed red pepper flakes
- Sliced cherry tomatoes
Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow these simple steps to prepare your Chicken Alfredo Flatbread Pizza:
1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a baking sheet or pizza stone inside to preheat as well. This helps the flatbread achieve a perfectly crispy crust.
2. Prepare the Flatbreads
Brush each flatbread lightly with olive oil on both sides. This step adds flavor and ensures a golden, crispy base.
3. Spread the Alfredo Sauce
Evenly spread Alfredo sauce over the top of each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
Pro Tip: Don’t overload with sauce! A thin, even layer prevents a soggy crust.
4. Add the Toppings
Top the sauce with:
- Cooked chicken pieces
- Mozzarella cheese
- Parmesan cheese
- Optional: Sprinkle fresh spinach or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.
5. Bake
Carefully place the flatbreads on the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbread are golden brown.
6. Garnish and Serve
Remove the flatbreads from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with:
- Fresh basil leaves
- A pinch of red pepper flakes for heat (if desired)
Slice into pieces and serve immediately. This pizza pairs beautifully with a fresh garden salad or garlic bread!
Pro Tips for Success
- Crispier Crust: Preheat your flatbreads for 2-3 minutes in the oven before adding toppings for an extra-crispy base.
- Make It Your Own: Experiment with different toppings like mushrooms, caramelized onions, or even bacon bits.
- Leftovers: Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven for the best results.
