How to make Buffalo Chicken Flatbread:
Brush both sides of your flatbread with olive oil and bake until golden brown.
Then remove the baked flatbread from the oven and top it with shredded chicken that has been mixed with Frank’s Hot Sauce and melted butter. Sprinkle chopped baby spinach on top.
About Frank’s Hot Sauce:
Frank’s Hot Sauce is a ready-to-use buffalo sauce. It’s sold in the area of the market where sauces are shelved. If you can’t locate it, you can use any kind of buffalo sauce.
Bake the Buffalo Chicken Flatbread again until the cheese is melted and the chicken is warmed through- about 5 minutes.
Cut the Buffalo Chicken Flatbread into 8 pieces, and drizzle blue cheese salad dressing on top.
Variations/substitutions:
If you want to beef up the flavor of the blue cheese, add blue cheese crumbles on top too. And if you don’t care for blue cheese, using Ranch dressing instead.
One serving is two pieces of the flatbread, so this recipe will serve 4 people. If you have a hungry bunch, double the recipe!
This Buffalo Chicken Flatbread is a super delicious snack. You’ll love the chicken and melted cheese with the blue cheese on top. Yum. Enjoy!
