Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup basil pesto (store-bought or homemade)

  • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Lay your flatbreads or naan on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Generously spread the basil pesto over each flatbread, covering it evenly.
  • Evenly distribute the shredded chicken on top of the pesto layer, followed by the shredded mozzarella. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
