Cuisine: Fusion
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 flatbreads or naan
- 2 cups cooked chicken, cubed
- 1 cup sweet and sour sauce
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, sliced
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
- If using pre-cooked chicken, ensure it is warmed and cut into bite-sized cubes. If using raw chicken, cook and cube it beforehand, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Place the flatbreads or naan on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.
- Spread an even layer of sweet and sour sauce over each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust.
- Distribute the cubed chicken evenly across the sauced flatbreads.
- Sprinkle sliced bell peppers over the chicken for added color and crunch.
- Top each flatbread generously with shredded mozzarella cheese, covering the chicken and peppers.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the edges of the flatbread are golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes to allow the cheese to set slightly.
- Garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh, sharp flavor and additional color.
- Slice each flatbread into quarters and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Tips
- Choose high-quality flatbreads or naan for the best base - fresh or slightly toasted works perfectly.
- Ensure your chicken is well-seasoned and evenly cubed for consistent flavor in every bite.
- Don't overload your flatbread - too many toppings can make the base soggy.
- For extra crispiness, brush the flatbread edges with a little olive oil before baking.
- Use freshly shredded mozzarella for the best melting quality and flavor.
- Let the pizza rest for a few minutes after baking to allow the cheese to set and prevent burning your mouth.
- Experiment with additional toppings like pineapple chunks or red onions for more flavor complexity.
