Flatbread Pizza With BBQ Chicken, Gruyere and Caramelized Onion created by CookinDiva

I love the new flatbreads that make a great low-calorie pizza crust. My grocery chain carries a brand called "FlatOut" in the deli area. If you can't find flatbreads, use a thin pre-baked pizza crust or use pita breads (split in half to make thin rounds). Top with chicken, caramelized red onion and Gruyere for a very fancy treat that is moderate in calories and fat.

ingredients

4 flat bread (such as "FlatOut", or use 4 pitas, split into 8 thin rounds)
8 ounces chicken, cooked, cut in pieces
1 large red onion, sliced
1 tablespoon oil
4 tablespoons boursin cheese (cream cheese with herb or garlic seasoning)
4 ounces gruyere cheese, shredded (or Swiss cheese)
1 cup barbecue sauce, your favorite brand

directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Prepare flatbreads - It works best if the flatbreads have dried and crisped a bit before adding pizza toppings. So as my oven is pre-heating, I place the flatbreads on parchment paper and bake them for 5 minutes on each side. After 10 minutes, the flatbread is still soft but it won't get soggy when you bake it with pizza toppings.
While flatbreads are pre-baking, saute sliced red onion in 1 T. oil about 8-10 minutes over MEDIUM heat. Set onions aside.
To assemble - spread each pre-baked flatbread with 1 T. Boursin cheese. Then divide equally red onion, cooked chicken, and shredded Grueyere cheese. Drizzle each pizza with about 1/4 cup BBQ sauce.
Bake 400 degrees for 10 minutes.

This was perfect, could be used as brunch, dinner or cut into small triangles as an appetizer. I made cream cheese sauce by melting it with garlic and onion powder, and a pinch of parsley.

I used carmelized onions, no boursin cheese and our bbq sauce as Busters Blueberry BBQ Sauce. Very tasty

The pizza worked great on flatbread, and was delicious. I used some smoked gouda in the cheese mix, but would have been great with just the gruyere cheese, as indicated. We'll definitely be making this quick and easy pizza again.

This is great! I make these for my husband, who had bariatric surgery a year ago and has lost over 120 pounds. The flatbread is perfect since he cannot tolerate bread well. I also make these as pepperoni pizza, using a small amount of Pizza sauce from a jar. Great substitue for him.
