Ingredients
  

2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken is a convenient option)

1 cup BBQ sauce (choose your favorite brand or make your own)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup mini flatbreads or naan

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Olive oil for brushing

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until the chicken is well coated in the sauce and the spices are evenly distributed.

    Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to make for easier cleanup later.

      Assemble the Flatbreads: Arrange the mini flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat each flatbread with olive oil, which will help achieve a crispy texture as they bake.

        Add the Chicken Topping: Spoon the BBQ chicken mixture evenly over each flatbread, making sure to distribute it well while leaving a small border around the edges for a neat presentation.

          Cheesy Goodness: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the BBQ chicken on each flatbread, ensuring a cheesy layer that will melt beautifully.

            Add Red Onions: Evenly scatter the thinly sliced red onion over the flatbreads, adding a zesty flavor contrast to the richness of the chicken and cheese.

              Bake: Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on them until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and the edges of the flatbreads turn a golden brown.

                Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the flatbreads from the oven and let them sit for a couple of minutes to cool slightly. Before serving, sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro on top, giving it a pop of color and fresh flavor.

                  Cut and Enjoy: Slice each flatbread into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that are perfect for sharing. Serve immediately and savor the deliciousness of your mini BBQ chicken flatbread circles!
