Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Flatbread

Creamy, spicy, and packed with protein, this Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Flatbread is a quick and satisfying weeknight dinner. It features a tangy cottage cheese ranch base, spicy buffalo chicken, and melted mozzarella on a crispy flatbread.

  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 cups pre-cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced

1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)

½ cup buffalo sauce

¼ cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing)

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

24 flatbreads (naan, pita, or pizza crusts)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until chicken is thoroughly coated.

3. In a small bowl, gently stir cottage cheese with ranch dressing until just combined. Do not blend smooth.

4. Lay flatbreads on the prepared baking sheet or hot pizza stone. Evenly spread the cottage cheese mixture over each flatbread, leaving a small border.

5. Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the cottage cheese base. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top. Add sliced red onion if desired.

6. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and crusts are golden brown.

7. Let cool for 1-2 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro if desired. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

For best texture, use finely shredded chicken. Pre-cooked rotisserie chicken works great. Adjust spice level by choosing a milder or hotter buffalo sauce. For a milder version, increase ranch dressing or decrease buffalo sauce. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in oven or air fryer for crispy results. You can also freeze unbaked flatbreads (without mozzarella) for up to 2 months.
