Equipment

Mixing Bowl
Half Sheet Pan

Ingredients

4 small round flatbreads, like pita bread or naan (see note)
1/2 cup diced cucumbers
1 cup chopped tomatoes (or use cherry tomatoes, halved)
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (or any pre-cooked shredded chicken)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 8 ounce container hummus
6 ounces shredded mozzarella or mild cheddar cheese
3/4 cup tzatziki (see note)
chopped fresh dill, parsley, or basil, for serving (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F.
While the broiler is heating up, combine cucumbers, tomatoes, vinegar, and 1 Tablespoon olive oil. Season with some salt and pepper. Set aside.
Toss chicken with 1 Tablespoon olive oil, dried oregano, and paprika.
Set flatbreads out in a single layer on a sheet pan. Spread each flatbread with hummus. Sprinkle flatbread with cheese and top with chicken. (Note: I like to put some of the cheese on before the chicken and some after so that you get layers of melted cheese and the chicken gets golden and crisp as it bakes.)
Bake until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is melted, 8 to 12 minutes.
Slice flatbreads and serve with cucumber-tomato salad and tzatziki on top or on the side.
Finish with chopped fresh dill, parsley, or basil.

Notes

Flatbread - Pita or naan are small enough that you’ll need one per serving. Your bakery section may also carry larger types of flatbread or pre-baked pizza crust that would work well in this recipe, but you may just need one or two to feed four.

Tzatziki - This cucumber-yogurt dip adds a fresh, creamy finish to the flatbread. Look for a store-bought version to save time or make it yourself with just a few ingredients. Check out my Tzatziki recipe.
