Description

A delightful dish combining juicy chicken, fresh tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and fragrant basil, perfect for a weeknight dinner or serving guests.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 flatbreads (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, diced or sliced
  • ½ cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and chopped basil. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Gently toss everything together to combine.
  4. Evenly distribute the chicken and tomato mixture across the flatbreads.
  5. Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and the edges of the flatbreads are golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

For quicker meal prep, consider using rotisserie chicken. Avoid pre-shredded cheese for optimal meltability. You can substitute flatbreads with pita or tortillas for a twist.
