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!

Made these for dinner tonight and they were amazing. I didn’t have (or even know what it was) Herbes de Provence so I just left it out and I thought the sauce was awesome!
Kimberlee says
oh man, if you have never cooked with Herbs de Provence you are missing out. Next time should try it this this seasoning
Julie says
Lauren, do you bake yours directly on the oven rack or in a sheet pan?
Lauren Allen says
Hi Julie,
I bake mine directly on the oven rack so the crust gets crispy on the bottom!
