Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare your baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it.
  2. Place the naan flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet and brush the edges with olive oil. Bake for 3-4 minutes until golden.
  3. Spread a generous layer of BBQ sauce over each toasted naan. Sprinkle with mozzarella and cheddar cheese, followed by the shredded rotisserie chicken.
  4. Return the flatbreads to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and edges are golden.
  5. Remove from the oven, top with red onion rings and cilantro. Slice and serve hot.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze individual pieces for up to 2 months. Reheat in a toaster oven or dry skillet for best results.
