Buffalo Chicken Flatbread
A delicious and spicy dish combining tender chicken coated in buffalo sauce and melted cheese on warm naan, perfect for a quick meal or party snack.
Ingredients
For the buffalo sauce
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ½ cup Frank's RedHot Sauce
For the chicken
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast (about ½ pound, fat trimmed, sliced thin)
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried chives
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
To assemble
- 3 large (10-inch diameter) naan bread
- 1 cup low-moisture, part-skim mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- ½ cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 3 tablespoons ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing (for serving)
- 3 pieces scallions (sliced, for serving)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small mixing bowl, melt the butter in the microwave using 30-second increments on HIGH power. Once melted, add the hot sauce and whisk well to combine. Set aside.
Cooking the chicken
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink.
- Sprinkle the dried dill, parsley, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and black pepper over the cooked chicken. Stir and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Assembling the flatbreads
- Add 2 tablespoons of the prepared buffalo sauce to the cooked chicken, and toss to combine, making sure the chicken is coated with the sauce.
- Place the naan bread on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of buffalo sauce on each flatbread as the base.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the buffalo sauce on each flatbread. Then, evenly distribute the prepared buffalo chicken over the cheeses.
Baking
- Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 9-11 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
Serving
- Remove the flatbreads from the oven. Drizzle each flatbread with ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing, and extra buffalo sauce (if desired), and top with sliced scallions. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
Don't overcook the chicken to keep it juicy. Adjust spice levels to your preference. Store leftovers properly for best results.
