Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning
4 flatbreads or naan
1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Caramelize the Onions: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and salt, cooking slowly until they are soft and golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
Prepare the Flatbreads: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet.
Assemble the Flatbreads: Evenly distribute the cooked chicken over the flatbreads. Top with the caramelized onions and sprinkle with black pepper and thyme. Finally, add the shredded cheese on top.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and slice into pieces. Enjoy your Chicken and Caramelized Onion Flatbread warm.
