Description

This Rotisserie Chicken BBQ Flatbread recipe combines the convenience of pre-cooked shredded rotisserie chicken with the sweet tang of BBQ sauce, creamy goat cheese, and fresh radishes, all layered on crispy grilled flatbread dough. Topped with peppery baby arugula and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, this 25-minute dish offers a delicious and easy-to-make meal perfect for summer grilling or casual get-togethers.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Shredded rotisserie chicken – 2 cups
  • BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Ray’s Sweet Vidalia Onion recommended) – 1/2 cup
  • Pizza dough (homemade or store-bought) – enough for 4 flatbreads (about 1 lb)
  • Goat cheese, crumbled – 1/2 cup
  • Radishes, thinly sliced – 6 medium
  • Baby arugula – 1 cup
  • Balsamic vinegar (optional) – 2 tablespoons

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Grill: Heat your grill to medium heat and arrange it for indirect grilling to prevent the dough from burning before the toppings cook.
  2. Divide and Shape Dough: Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces. Press each piece into a flatbread shape about 1/4 inch thick on a floured surface.
  3. Grill Flatbread Base: Place the flatbreads on the grill over indirect heat. Grill until one side is browned and slightly crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Flip and Top: Flip each flatbread over and quickly spread a generous layer of BBQ sauce on the cooked side. Evenly distribute shredded rotisserie chicken, sprinkle crumbled goat cheese, and scatter thinly sliced radishes over the top.
  5. Cook to Melt Cheese: Continue grilling until the bottom side of the flatbread is browned and crispy and the goat cheese begins to melt, approximately 4-6 minutes.
  6. Add Fresh Toppings and Serve: Remove flatbreads from the grill and immediately top with fresh baby arugula. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the top if desired. Serve warm and enjoy the vibrant flavors.

Notes

  • For a spicier variation, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce on top of the flatbread before grilling.
  • If you don’t have a grill, you can cook the flatbreads in a preheated oven at 450°F (232°C) using a pizza stone or baking sheet, broiling briefly at the end to melt the cheese.
  • Use goat cheese at room temperature to ensure even melting.
  • To make the flatbread dough from scratch, use a simple recipe with flour, water, yeast, salt, and olive oil.
