I LOVE inventing new pizza recipes. Coming up with fun and different sauce ideas and topping ideas. Some of my favorites include:

Pesto Veggie Pizza

Peach, Basil, Mozzarella Flatbread

White Garlic Chicken and Veggie Pizza

I’ve had the idea for a Cajun Chicken Flatbread for a while, it was just a matter of getting the sauce right. I ended up with a sort of cajun-style garlic aioli sauce. I lathered it on the base of the flatbread and drizzled some on top too. WOW. The whole combination of flavors in this pizza knocked our socks off! I bought my flatbread (but you could make it on my favorite homemade pizza crust). This is the perfect kind of football party food– I can’t wait to make it again this weekend!

Cajun Chicken Flatbread

Servings: 10

Author: Lauren Allen

Ingredients

For the cajun aioli sauce:

1 cup Mayonnaise
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp Dijon Mustard
3 cloves garlic , minced
1 1/2 tsp herbes de provence
2 tsp cajun seasoning

For the pizza:

1 large flatbread (I like the stonefire brand)
1 chicken breast
1 tsp cajun seasoning
1 heaping cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 bell pepper , sliced into thin strips (or 4-5 mini sweet peppers chopped, in different colors)
1/2 of a small onion , chopped
1 small avocado , peeled, seeded, sliced
Fresh chopped cilantro , for garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Make the sauce by coming all ingredients and stirring until smooth. (The sauce can be made up to 1 week in advance).
Season the chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper and 1 tsp of cajun seasoning. Grill for several minutes on each side, only flipping once, until cooked through. Remove to a plate and allow to rest for 5 minutes, then chop into bite-size pieces.
Spread a thin layer of sauce over the flatbread. Sprinkle with cheese, chopped chicken, bell peppers and onion. Bake @425 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with chopped avocado and cilantro. Add remaining aioli sauce to a ziplock bag. But a tiny piece of the corner off and drizzle a little bit of cajun sauce on top. Serve warm.
