  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF/200ºC.
  • Make the garlic infused olive oil. Add smashed garlic cloves, dried or fresh thyme, and olive oil to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Warm for 4-5 minutes then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Make buffalo chicken. In the bottom of large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce until well combined then stir in the shredded chicken until evenly mixed.
  • Assemble flatbread. Add the flatbreads to an unlined baking sheet. Brush the crust with the infused olive oil, leaving about ½-inch space around the edges. Then top with mozzarella cheese, buffalo chicken, and sliced red onion.
  • Bake. Bake flatbreads for 7-10 minutes. Remove from the oven. Add a drizzle of ranch dressing and sliced green onion or chives on top. Cut into slices and enjoy!

Notes

Buffalo chicken: I like to generously pile the chicken onto the flatbreads, but you'll likely have a little left over.
Dairy free ranch: I love my dill pickle ranch dressing, but for drizzling over the pizza, I recommend leaving out the dill pickles and you're left with the most incredible ranch dressing.
