This recipe is quick and easy since the soft flatbread is already baked. Using simple ingredients and a great way to use up leftover chicken, makes the perfect dinner or appetizer any day of the week!
Ingredients for this chicken club flatbread
Ingredients notes
- Chicken: Rotisserie chicken, and leftover grilled white meat chicken both work great.
- Bacon: I like to use a smoky bacon.
- Cheese: Freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
- Garlic: Freshly minced garlic is the best garlic powder isn't a great substitute for this recipe.
- Ranch: I like to make my own ranch dressing because it has a thicker consistency.
- Chipotle Powder: Adds a nice kick but can be easily adjusted.
How to make Chicken Club Flatbread
- Step 1: Place the flatbread on a baking sheet and add the shredded cheese and minced garlic.
- Step 2: Sprinkle the cooked bacon and diced tomatoes on top, bake!
- Step 3: In a small bowl add the ranch and chipotle powder and mix, place the sauce in a ziplock baggie, and cut a tiny hole in the tip.
- Step 4: Add the diced avocados and squeeze the chipotle sauce over the top and add the chopped cilantro, cut and serve!
Recipe tips
- Throw these flatbreads on the grill for a delicious smoky flavor.
- I like to add the chipotle ranch dressing to a sandwich baggie and cut a little hole in the corner to drizzle over the flatbread.
- Use fresh chopped parsley or green onions in place of cilantro if you prefer.
Recipe Faq's
Flatbread is not the same as pizza dough as pizza dough rises. Flatbread originated in Egypt and is basically a bread that is flat. Made from unleavened dough, the main ingredients are flour, water and salt. Makes a delicious quick and easy pizza that everybody will love.
Yes, prepare your toppings and place cheese, garlic, chicken, bacon, and tomatoes on top of the flatbread place on the baking sheet and wrap with aluminum foil until ready to bake. Then add the avocados, cilantro, and sauce!

This was delicious! I used a pizza crust, garlic powder instead of fresh garlic add drizzled with Pioneer Woman Southwestern ranch. Very good pizza!
