Ingredients

- Garlic PowderAdds a subtle, aromatic depth to the flatbread, enhancing its overall savory profile.
- Onion PowderComplements the garlic, offering another layer of savory flavor to the crispy flatbread base.
- Dried Italian HerbsA blend of herbs like oregano, basil, and thyme infuses the flatbread with classic Mediterranean notes.
- Salt and Black PepperEssential seasonings to enhance all the flavors in both the flatbread and the chicken filling.

Notes
- Store leftover flatbreads and cooked chicken separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain their best texture.
- For maximum crispness, reheat flatbreads in a toaster oven or air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3-5 minutes, rather than microwaving them.
- These versatile flatbreads also make a fantastic base for mini pizzas or a savory snack torn into pieces and dipped in your favorite hummus.
- For the crispiest flatbreads, absolutely use full-fat cottage cheese as suggested, and don't hesitate to bake them until they are deeply golden and firm on the edges for that perfect crunch.
