Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand or homemade)

4 large flatbreads

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 avocado, sliced

1 cup arugula or mixed greens

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Chicken: In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce until well coated.

      Assemble the Flatbreads: On a baking sheet, lay out the flatbreads. Evenly distribute the BBQ chicken mixture over each flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.

        Add Cheese and Onions: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the BBQ chicken on each flatbread. Scatter the sliced red onions on top for extra flavor and crunch.

          Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbreads are slightly crispy.

            Garnish: Once the flatbreads are out of the oven, remove them from the baking sheet. Top with fresh cilantro, slices of avocado, and a handful of arugula or mixed greens.

              Drizzle and Season: Drizzle a little olive oil over the top and season with salt and pepper to taste. If desired, serve with lime wedges for an extra zesty kick.

                Slice and Enjoy: Cut the flatbreads into slices or quarters and serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your flavorful Zesty BBQ Chicken Flatbread Sandwiches!
