Description
Chicken Alfredo Flatbread is a delightful fusion of creamy, cheesy goodness and the convenience of a handheld meal. This dish combines the classic flavors of Alfredo sauce, tender chicken, and melted mozzarella, all nestled on a perfectly baked flatbread crust.
Ingredients
- Cooked Chicken: Whether grilled, roasted, or sautéed, the chicken provides a delicious protein that pairs beautifully with the creamy Alfredo sauce.
- Alfredo Sauce: You can use a store-bought Alfredo sauce or make your own homemade version for an extra creamy and flavorful base.
- Flatbread or Naan: These versatile bases serve as the foundation for the dish, allowing you to easily assemble and bake the Chicken Alfredo Flatbread.
- Mozzarella Cheese: The melted mozzarella cheese adds a gooey, stringy texture that complements the Alfredo sauce perfectly.
- Parmesan Cheese: A sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese provides an extra burst of savory flavor.
- Spinach: Fresh spinach leaves add a delightful pop of color and a touch of freshness to the dish.
- Olive Oil: A light brushing of olive oil helps the flatbread achieve a crisp, golden-brown finish.
- Salt and Pepper: Simple seasonings to enhance the overall flavor profile.
Instructions
1. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Next, place the flatbread or naan on a baking sheet and lightly brush the surface with olive oil.
3. Spread the Alfredo sauce evenly over the flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Top with the cooked chicken, followed by the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
5. Finally, add the fresh spinach leaves.
6. Sprinkle the Chicken Alfredo Flatbread with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, and you’re ready to bake!
7. Pop the prepared Chicken Alfredo Flatbread into the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are golden brown.
8. Keep a close eye on the flatbread during the baking process to ensure it doesn’t overcook.
Notes
For a healthier version, use whole-wheat or gluten-free flatbread, reduced-fat Alfredo sauce, and more vegetables.
