This Buffalo Chicken Flatbread recipe combines crispy flatbread with spicy buffalo wing sauce, tender diced chicken, melted mozzarella, and creamy blue cheese dressing, topped with fresh green onions for a flavorful and satisfying meal or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Base

  • 2 flatbreads (14.5 ounces total)
  • 2 teaspoons light olive oil

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (more if desired)
  • 1 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken (approximately 3/4 pounds)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/3 cup blue cheese dressing
  • 1/3 cup sliced green onions (about 3 green onions)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot enough to crisp up the flatbreads thoroughly.
  2. Prepare Flatbreads: Place the flatbreads on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan. Lightly brush the edges of each flatbread with olive oil to promote crisping and golden edges when baked.
  3. Initial Bake: Bake the flatbreads in the preheated oven for 5 minutes until they are warmed through and just beginning to crisp on the edges. This prevents sogginess once toppings are added.
  4. Add Sauce and Toppings: Remove the flatbreads from the oven and evenly spread buffalo wing sauce over each one. Then top with the diced cooked chicken and shredded mozzarella cheese. Drizzle the blue cheese dressing over the top for added flavor and richness.
  5. Bake to Finish: Return the flatbreads to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. Watch carefully towards the end; for a nicely browned top, place flatbreads under the broiler on high heat for 1-2 minutes to caramelize the cheese and heat toppings through.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the flatbreads from the oven, sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top, and add additional buffalo sauce and blue cheese dressing if desired before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken leftovers or rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Adjust the amount of buffalo wing sauce according to your spice preference.
  • Broil carefully as cheese can burn quickly under high heat.
  • Flatbreads can be substituted with naan or pita bread for a different texture.
  • For a milder version, use ranch dressing instead of blue cheese.
