Whip up these delicious Chicken Pesto Flatbread Sandwiches for a satisfying lunch!

Prep time: 30 mins

Bake time: 10 mins

Total time: 40 mins

Servings: 4


– 1 cup fresh basil leaves

– 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley

– 2 cloves garlic

– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

– 6 tablespoon olive oil, divided

– 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

– 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

– 2 cups baby arugula

– 1 lb prepared pizza dough, at room temperature

– All-purpose flour, for work surface

– 6 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced


Directions

Place a baking sheet in oven and preheat to 400°F.

Combine basil, parsley, garlic, pepper, 5 tablespoons oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor; process until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl, add chicken and arugula, and toss to coat.

Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each into a 4-by-6-inch oval on a floured surface. Brush with remaining 1 tablespoon oil and season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place dough on preheated baking sheet and bake until golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer sheet to a rack and cover with a clean, damp kitchen towel until dough is pliable, about 3 minutes.

Top dough with chicken mixture and cheese and fold in half.
