I have a thing for Frank’s Red Hot sauce, so when I saw this Buffalo Chicken Flatbread Pizza from TK member (and fellow TK Blog contributor) Laurie, I knew this was a recipe for me. The combination of roasted chicken and salty tangy blue cheese along with this special sauce was heavenly. You really want to try this one! Especially if you have leftover roasted chicken or any other meat on hand.
To make it you will need: garlic naan, green onion, roasted chicken, butter, cayenne, Frank’s Red Hot, blue cheese and pepper jack cheese.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the Frank’s, butter, cayenne, salt and pepper. Whisk until combined and slightly bubbling and remove from the heat.
Meanwhile, shred your cheese!
And dice your green onion.
Preheat the oven to 425ºF and lay the naan on a baking sheet covered in foil or sprayed with cooking spray.
Spoon the Buffalo sauce all over the naan …
Pile on the roasted chicken …
Then the blue cheese and pepper jack. Pop it in the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the naan is browned and crispy.
Top it with green onions and slice it into pieces. Small sizes make it a great appetizer!
These delicious bites will not last; the salt and tang and crunch are oh-so-addictive. Thank you Laurie for another winner. Visit her website Simply Scratch for more delicious treats!
