Dan-O’s SeasoningIngredients
- 1 Flatbread
- 1/2 Chicken breasts
- 4 strips Bacon
- 1/4 cup Red onion
- Spicy Dan-O’s Seasoning
- BBQ sauce
- Mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- 1Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Add your bacon to a baking sheet, season both sides with Dan-O’s, and cook for 20 minutes until desired crispiness. While your bacon cooks cut a chicken breast in half lengthwise and season both sides liberally with Dan-O’s. Cook in a pan on medium heat to get a nice crust, and then remove to cool down.
- 2Dice up your onion while the chicken cools and the bacon finishes cooking. Remove the bacon and clear off the excess grease with a paper towel. Dice up the chicken and bacon and set to the side.
- 3Brush the flatbread with minced garlic, Dan-O’s and olive oil mixed together. Place in the oven on its own for 3-5 minutes for extra crispiness. Add a base of BBQ sauce, then your chicken, cheese, bacon, and onion.
- 4Bake at 375 degrees for 10-13 minutes until cheese is melted and toppings start to crisp up. Slice and let cool down before serving. Enjoy!

Open in Pepper →Pizza Night Without The Dough Waiting
A flatbread turns pizza into a weeknight thing. No rising, no stretching, no flour on the counter — just sauce, cheese, whatever's in the fridge, and ten minutes in a hot oven.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on the nights everybody wants something different, or when it's 6:15 and the kids are hungry. One flatbread each, everybody tops their own, done.
Every recipe here starts with a flatbread and goes somewhere good: BBQ Chicken Flatbread Pizza with bacon, spinach ricotta with Parmesan, caramelized onion and bacon, Tandoori Flatbread Pizza, Jalapeño Flatbread Pizza on naan, and a Homemade Flatbread Pizza with yeast dough for when you have the time.
Quick Tips
- 1
Bake the crust bare first
Slide the plain flatbread into a 425°F oven for 4 to 5 minutes before topping so it crisps instead of going soggy under the sauce.
- 2
Go light on sauce
Two to three tablespoons is plenty for one flatbread — any more and the middle stays limp no matter how long you bake it.
- 3
Cook toppings ahead
Bacon, chicken, and onions need more time than the 10-minute bake, so cook them through first. Caramelizing onions takes a slow 25 to 30 minutes in butter.
- 4
Slice on a board
Move the flatbread off the hot pan and let it sit 2 minutes before cutting, so the cheese sets and the slices hold together.
