Ingredients
  

1 large flatbread or naan

1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (a rotisserie chicken works wonderfully)

1/2 cup BBQ sauce, plus extra for drizzling

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup sweet corn (canned or frozen, thawed)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional: sliced jalapeños for an extra kick

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 450°F (232°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking.

    Prepare the Chicken: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce. Stir thoroughly until all the chicken is nicely coated in the sauce for maximum flavor.

      Create the Base Layer: Take your flatbread or naan and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread the ranch dressing evenly over the surface of the flatbread, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges to prevent overflow.

        Add BBQ Chicken: Spoon the BBQ chicken mixture onto the ranch-dressed flatbread, spreading it evenly across the surface to ensure every bite has delightful chicken goodness.

          Layer the Cheese: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the BBQ chicken layer. Feel free to adjust the amount based on how cheesy you want your flatbread.

            Garnish with Veggies: Evenly distribute the thinly sliced red onion and sweet corn over the cheesy layer. Lightly season with salt and pepper to enhance the flavors. If you enjoy some heat, add sliced jalapeños on top at this stage.

              Bake: Carefully place the assembled flatbread in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden, and the edges of the flatbread are nicely crispy.

                Finishing Touches: Once your flatbread is out of the oven, drizzle with additional BBQ sauce for added sweetness and flavor. Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro over the top to add a bright herbal note.

                  Slice and Serve: Allow the flatbread to cool for a minute or two before slicing it into squares or wedges. Serve warm and savor the deliciousness of your BBQ Chicken Ranch Flatbread!
