Flatbread Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Flatbread Dough

    In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, and olive oil. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

  2. 2

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook slowly for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown and caramelized.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Let rest, then slice thinly.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Flatbread

    Preheat a grill or grill pan. Roll out the flatbread dough to your desired thickness. Grill each side for 2-3 minutes until slightly charred and cooked through. Spread basil pesto on the flatbread, layer with grilled chicken, caramelized onions, and top with shredded aged white cheddar.

  5. 5

    Final Grill

    Place the assembled flatbread back on the grill for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted. Remove from the grill, slice, and serve warm.
