Forget delivery and make your own flatbread pizza recipe in minutes with this easy and delicious BBQ Chicken pizza. With about 15 minutes from prep to cook time, you’ll be sure to make this one over and over again. It’s that good!
I’m back at it after a little staycation!
All in all the weather was great! The first few days, it was so windy, but living in the windiest city in Canada (3rd windiest in the world), I have come to expect wind, LOL.
We did get a couple days of rain, which was also nice because it was an excuse to stay inside and chill.
I thought I’d ease into the week with something that’s a tad indulgent and super easy, so BBQ chicken flatbread pizza it is!
I’m obsessed with these flatbreads. They are just so darn convenient and, of course, delicious! Ever since I’ve made this BBQ chicken flatbread pizza, it’s a regular for us. Once you taste it, you’ll see why!
How To Make It
Full details are in the recipe card below, but here are the basics:
- Spread BBQ sauce over flatbreads.
- Top with cheese.
- Add thinly sliced red onion and mushrooms.
- Add cooked chicken and banana peppers.
- Bake until the cheese is melted and it is heated through.
- Carefully remove from the oven and garnish with arugula. Slice up and dig in! Easy, right?
More Fun Pizza Toppings
How cool would it be to buy a bunch of these flatbreads, assemble a little topping station and invite some friends over for a little get-together? Everyone can create their own customized pizza. Fun, right? Some other pizza toppings that I love are:
- Pizza sauce
- Pesto
- Prosciutto
- Spicy Genoa salami
- Grilled veg
- Roasted red pepper
- Goat cheese
- Feta cheese
- Spinach
- Green pepper
- Diced tomato
- Chili flakes
- A drizzle of balsamic reduction or honey
- Thin slices of grilled peach
The combinations are endless here! What are some of your favourite pizza toppings?
Tips for Making This BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza Recipe
- This flatbread pizza recipe yields two flatbread pizzas. The size of each flatbread is 200 grams each. If your flatbread is larger or smaller, you may have to adjust your ingredients accordingly.
- I cut each flatbread pizza into 2 large slices, but you can cut them smaller if you wish.
- I use fresh mozzarella here. It melts wonderfully and tastes delicious!
- Don’t like banana peppers? Leave them out. Love them? Pile more on!

I’ve been in love with flatbread pizzas for the last year – they are so versatile, delicious, and ridiculously easy to make. So easy that I consider it’s dangerous to keep flatbread in my house; otherwise I will often be tempted 🙂 Delicious version here, Dawn!
Girl Heart Food says
Totally!!! I know what ya mean 😉 Thanks so much Ben!
Mimi says
Yum. These breads look good – I’ll have to see if I can find them.
Girl Heart Food says
I bought them at Costco, but you should be able to get them at your supermarket where you would find tortillas and such 🙂 Thanks Mimi!
David @ Spiced says
3rd windiest city in the world!? Say what? That’s nuts. But I bet you can fly a mean kite. Hah! I’m glad you guys had an awesome staycation. Both Laura and I are feeling a little stretched thin right now, and maybe a staycation (or a stayday) is in order soon. And our stayday would definitely involve pizza! We love a good BBQ Chicken pizza, and as far as toppings, we are hooked on diced jalapenos (seeded first). So good! Your flatbread version here looks delicious, my friend!
Girl Heart Food says
I know. It’s surprising when its *not* windy, lol. Love jalapenos on anything!! Thanks David – hope you’re having an awesome week!
Mary Ann | The Beach House Kitchen says
