Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza is the perfect easy weeknight dinner or party appetizer. Best of all, ready in less than 30 minutes and packed with tender rotisserie or leftover chicken, gooey mozzarella, crisp fresh veggies and a sweet and savory peanut sauce.
I am always on the lookout for anything that helps save time in the kitchen on those busy weeknights.
Since chicken is the hubs and kiddos favorite, we usually like to pick up a rotisserie chicken when we are short on time. It makes getting dinner on the table so much easier. Plus, you can’t beat all the different ways you can use it.
That’s why I was so excited when I heard that Trish from Mom On Timeout was writing a cookbook. It’s titled 100 Creative Ways to Use Rotisserie Chicken in Everyday Meals. Such a great resource for busy families!
Recipe for Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza
This Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza from Trish’s book was super easy to make and a hit with the family. I added a kick of heat to the savory peanut sauce and it was amazing paired with the gooey mozzarella, shredded carrots, bell peppers and green onions.
We always top our pizzas with some fresh pineapple whenever we can and I also like to throw in some baby spinach for a dose of greens.
Bake about 10 minutes until golden bubbly then garnish with cilantro, and crushed peanuts.
Like all of the recipes in this cookbook, this flatbread pizza is quick and easy to prepare, which is perfect for any busy family.
I can’t wait to cook my way through this book, it’s already got a permanent place in the kitchen.
