Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If you are making homemade flatbread, prepare the dough by combining flour, baking powder, salt, and water until a soft dough forms. Roll out to your desired thickness.
In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce until fully coated. Adjust the sauce amount to your taste preference.
If using store-bought flatbread, brush it lightly with olive oil. If you made homemade flatbread, do the same after rolling it out.
Spread a thin layer of BBQ sauce over the flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges. Evenly distribute the shredded chicken mixture on top of the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the chicken, followed by the sliced red onion.
Place the flatbread on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with extra BBQ sauce, and garnish with fresh cilantro before slicing and serving.
For an extra tip, consider preparing the BBQ chicken mixture in advance and storing it in the refrigerator. This way, when you're ready to make your flatbread, you can simply assemble and bake it, saving time without sacrificing flavor.
Additionally, feel free to experiment with toppings and sauces to make this dish your own, ensuring it remains a family favorite!
