Step-by-Step Instructions for BBQ Chicken Flatbreads
  1. Marinate Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine boneless, skinless chicken breast pieces with olive oil, sweet paprika, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Cook Chicken: Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for about 6 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  3. Prepare Flatbreads: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and arrange flatbreads.
  4. Assemble Flatbreads: Spread BBQ sauce over each flatbread, then distribute cooked chicken, shredded mozzarella, red onion, and capsicum on top.
  5. Bake: Place the baking tray in the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the cheese has melted and edges are crispy.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven, optionally top with chopped coriander, slice and serve warm.

Notes

Marinate chicken for at least 10 minutes; overnight is even better. Use crispy flatbreads like naan or Turkish bread for the best texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
