A quick and easy crispy buffalo chicken flatbread topped with a smooth blue cheese drizzle, perfect for busy weeknights or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large store-bought flatbreads (about 8–10 inches each) or naan bread
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
  • Blue Cheese Drizzle:
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles (preferably creamy, mild blue cheese like Maytag)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar
  • Water, as needed to thin out the drizzle
  • Chopped chives or parsley for garnish (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss shredded rotisserie chicken with buffalo sauce until evenly coated. Adjust sauce heat to taste and set aside.
  3. Lightly brush each flatbread with olive oil to help crisp the edges.
  4. Evenly sprinkle shredded mozzarella or provolone over each flatbread.
  5. Distribute the buffalo chicken evenly over the cheese. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
  6. Bake the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden and cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch closely after 12 minutes to avoid burning.
  7. While baking, prepare the blue cheese drizzle by whisking together blue cheese crumbles, sour cream or Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, and lemon juice until smooth. Add water a teaspoon at a time to reach a pourable consistency.
  8. Remove flatbreads from oven and let rest for 2 minutes.
  9. Drizzle the blue cheese sauce generously over the flatbreads and garnish with chopped fresh herbs if using.
  10. Cut into slices and serve immediately. Leftovers can be reheated in a toaster oven or skillet to maintain crispness.

Notes

Do not overload the flatbread with toppings to avoid sogginess. Brush flatbread with olive oil before baking to keep crust crisp. Use shredded rotisserie chicken for convenience and flavor. Adjust buffalo sauce heat to taste. For a smoother blue cheese drizzle, blend ingredients in a food processor. Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra crispiness, watching carefully to avoid burning. Leftovers reheat best in toaster oven or skillet, not microwave.
