A quick and easy game day snack featuring crispy flatbread topped with spicy buffalo chicken, melty cheese, and a creamy ranch drizzle. Perfectly balanced with heat, crunch, and fresh toppings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large flatbreads (810 inches each)
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped
  • 1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 small celery stalk, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Shred or chop 2 cups of cooked chicken breast. Thinly slice 2 green onions and 1 celery stalk. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup buffalo sauce with 2 tablespoons melted butter. Toss the chicken in this sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.
  3. Place flatbreads on a baking sheet. Sprinkle garlic powder and paprika evenly over the surface.
  4. Spread the buffalo chicken evenly over each flatbread. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella and 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese evenly on top.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and edges of the flatbread are golden and crisp. Tent with foil if edges brown too quickly.
  6. Remove from oven and drizzle with 1/2 cup ranch dressing. Scatter sliced green onions and celery on top.
  7. Slice flatbread into 6-8 pieces and serve immediately.

Notes

Preheat the baking sheet or pizza stone for a crispier crust. Avoid adding ranch before baking to keep it fresh and creamy. Tent with foil if edges brown too fast. Let buffalo chicken rest a few minutes after saucing for juiciness. Use leftover rotisserie chicken to save time. Reheat leftovers in oven or toaster oven to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
