Ingredients
  

2 large flatbreads (store-bought or homemade)

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand or homemade)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: jalapeño slices, for added heat

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce. Mix until the chicken is fully coated. Allow marinating for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

    Prepare the Flatbreads: Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the flatbreads lightly with olive oil on one side to prevent sticking and enhance browning.

      Assemble the Flatbreads: On a clean working surface, spread the remaining BBQ sauce evenly over the un-oiled side of each flatbread. Top with the BBQ chicken mixture, spreading it evenly across each flatbread. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese, sliced red onion, and corn over the chicken. Optionally, add jalapeño slices for some heat.

        Grill the Flatbreads: Carefully place each assembled flatbread on the preheated grill, oil-side down. Close the grill lid and cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden and slightly charred. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.

          Garnish and Serve: Once grilled to perfection, remove the flatbreads from the grill. Sprinkle fresh chopped cilantro over the top for a pop of color and flavor. Slice into wedges and serve warm.

            Enjoy: Pair your delicious smoked BBQ chicken flatbreads with a side salad or potato chips for a full meal.
