Step-by-Step Instructions for Pesto Chicken Flatbread
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add chicken, and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
- On a baking sheet, lay out the flatbreads and spread a layer of fresh basil pesto over each.
- Distribute sliced chicken over the flatbreads, sprinkle mozzarella cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, and Parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Broil for an additional 1-2 minutes for extra crispiness.
- Let them cool slightly, slice, garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm.
