Ingredients
  

For the Pulled Chicken:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice of favorite brand or a homemade version)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 cup chicken broth or water

For the Flatbreads:

4 store-bought or homemade flatbreads (naan is a great option)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1/2 cup corn (canned or frozen, thawed if frozen)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)

For Toppings:

Additional BBQ sauce for drizzling

Sliced jalapeños (optional for those who enjoy a spicy kick)

Lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Chicken:

    - Place the chicken breasts in a slow cooker. Pour in the BBQ sauce and sprinkle with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken broth (or water) to keep the chicken moist. Cover and cook on the low setting for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender enough to shred easily with a fork.

      Shred the Chicken:

        - Carefully remove the cooked chicken from the slow cooker and use two forks to shred it into bite-sized pieces. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker, mixing it well with the remaining sauce. Let it sit on the warm setting for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

          Prepare the Flatbreads:

            - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating, arrange the flatbreads on a baking sheet, spacing them evenly.

              Assemble the Flatbreads:

                - Take a generous scoop of the BBQ pulled chicken and evenly distribute it over each flatbread. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the chicken. Then, add the thinly sliced red onion and corn to enhance the texture and flavor profile.

                  Bake:

                    - Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is thoroughly melted and bubbling, and the edges of the flatbreads are slightly crispy.

                      Garnish and Serve:

                        - Once baked, remove the flatbreads from the oven. Drizzle with extra BBQ sauce if desired, and sprinkle chopped cilantro on top for a burst of freshness. Cut into slices, serve with lime wedges on the side, and enjoy your delicious Smoky BBQ Bliss Pulled Chicken Flatbreads!
