Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Dice the chicken into small bite sized pieces (½” or smaller*). Season the chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 7–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and lightly browned.
Place the flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet.
Spread about ¼ cup pesto evenly over each flatbread.
Sprinkle with mozzarella, then top with tomato slices and cooked chicken.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the flatbreads are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with red pepper flakes and Parmesan. Slice and serve warm.
Notes
*Smaller pieces cook faster and give you more even bites on each flatbread.Use pre-cooked or rotisserie chicken and jarred pesto for a 15-minute dinner.
