Ingredients
  

2 flatbreads or naan

1 cup cooked grilled chicken, shredded (seasoned with salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup marinara sauce

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Olive oil for brushing

Salt and pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze (optional for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, ideally around 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your flatbread gets a nice crispy texture.

    Prepare the Flatbreads: Take each flatbread and lightly brush one side with olive oil. This oil will not only enhance flavor but also help create a deliciously crispy crust.

      Grill the Flatbreads: Carefully place the flatbreads on the grill with the oiled side facing down. Grill for about 2-3 minutes or until you see grill marks and the bottom is warm. Once ready, flip them over to the plain side.

        Spread the Marinara Sauce: Spoon 1/4 cup of marinara sauce over the grilled side of each flatbread, spreading it evenly to provide a flavorful base.

          Layer the Ingredients: Begin layering your toppings on the sauced flatbreads: sprinkle the shredded grilled chicken, add the mozzarella cheese, arrange the halved cherry tomatoes, and top with the thinly sliced red onion. If you like a little heat, sprinkle the red pepper flakes over the top.

            Grill the Pizzas: Close the grill lid and allow the pizzas to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes. You are looking for the cheese to be fully melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbreads to become crispy.

              Finishing Touches: Once cooked, remove the flatbreads from the grill. Before serving, scatter the fresh basil leaves on top and drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired for an extra touch of tanginess.

                Slice and Serve: For easy serving, slice the flatbreads into quarters. Enjoy them immediately while they're hot and cheesy, relishing the zesty flavors in each bite!
