Treat yourself to this delicious Mediterranean Garlic Chicken Flatbread Pizza with lavash flatbread. This flatbread pizza has only six ingredients and takes less than thirty minutes to make. It is a great recipe for a busy weeknight and such an easy meal.
The flatbread pizza has a light crispy texture, not quite as thick as a pizza crust.
More Ways to Make Pizza with Mediterranean Flatbread
Greek Pizza Meal
Satisfy your cravings for a Greek pizza meal using Greek flatbread with fresh basil leaves and artichoke hearts. Add a healthy side salad topped with black olives and drizzled olive oil and vinegar. Greek chicken flatbread topped with artichokes and feta cheese is delicious.
BBQ Chicken Pizza
You can also turn this flatbread into a barbecue chicken pizza. Brush some BBQ sauce on the flatbread instead of pizza sauce (serve with a bottle of barbecue sauce 😁). The barbecue pizza is delicious and one of my hubby’s and my most favorites.
Thai Chicken Flatbread Pizza
I like cooking Thai-flavored veggies. Slice a few vegetables you would like for pizza toppings, and add a Thai sauce for the flatbread.
Gyro Pizza Recipe
How about making a gyro pizza recipe by adding lamb rather than chicken and dip the pizza slices in a Greek yogurt cucumber dip? Not a Greek yogurt fan? Sour cream will work or plain yogurt.
Substitute Alfredo Sauce
Tomato-based sauces can cause discomfort for some individuals. You may substitute Alfredo sauce if you can’t eat the red pizza sauce. Both flavors will work for this recipe.

Tips on How to Make the Mediterranean Garlic Chicken Flatbread Pizza
Prep time for the garlic chicken flatbread pizza is simple when you use leftover chicken or other meat.
Shred the meat, and slice the fresh garlic on your cutting board. Take out the cheese from the fridge, and cut a few basil leaves for the toppings. In about five minutes, all meal prep can be done.
I made this Mediterranean chicken flatbread pizza and used my pizza stone to bake it in. If you don’t own a pizza stone, a baking sheet should work fine. Or you could use a cast iron pan to cook the pizza.
I suggest purchasing a pizza stone set like this one on Amazon:However, I suggest purchasing a pizza stone set like this one on Amazon:
What kind of chicken to use in the recipe:
Although I made mine with a leftover piece of baked chicken breast, you can use rotisserie chicken as well. Or, cook chicken thighs ahead and save the leftovers for the flatbread pizza.
Flatbreads
There are a variety of flatbreads to choose from. I am loving the Joseph’s brand (a square flatbread) and Flatout flatbread. You can even order these on Amazon:

Seasonings for Flatbread Pizza
The type of seasonings you use for your flatbread pizza, of course, depends on your main ingredients. However, any mediterranean flavors should do perfectly with the flatbread. I’ve listed a few of my favorite seasonings here:
- red onion
- red peppers (especially McCormick’s Red Pepper Flakes) or cayenne pepper
- black pepper
- McCormick Garlic Herb and Black Pepper and Sea Salt
- McCormick Salt-Free Garlic Herb
If you’re not able to find any of these seasonings at your local grocery store, check on Amazon.
Cheese Options for the Flatbread Pizza
You may want to experiment with the type of cheese to put on your pizza. Although I chose Swiss cheese for this recipe, you might want to try one or more of these options:
- Mozzarella cheese
- Parmesan cheese
- Feta cheese
- Swiss cheese
- Goat cheese
- Lactose-free almond mozzarella-like cheese
Serve the flatbread pizza with a salad of fresh veggies including grape tomatoes or cherry tomatoes. Add a few Kalamata olives and fresh parsley. Top with salad dressing that has Greek flavors, Italian dressing, or oil and vinegar.
I enjoy making easy and quick burritos or wraps. If you’re wondering what the difference is between the two, read more in my Breakfast Spinach Wrap recipe post.
