Sorry, I've been bad about remembering to post these.

What is your favorite pizza/flatbread recipe?

My friend sent me this one a while back...it is a favorite dinner in our house.

Chicken Pesto Flatbreads:

4 naan flatbreads or pitas

1/4 cup prepared basil pesto sauce

2 cups cooked shredded chicken

1 1/2 cups mixed cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered

1 shallot, halved and cut into thin strips

4 oz fresh mozzarella, diced

1/3 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

2 tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 1/3 cups baby arugula

---

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 450 degrees F. Place flatbreads on a large baking sheet. Spread with pesto and top with chicken, tomatoes, shallots, and mozzarella. Spoon small dollops of ricotta over each and sprinkle with Parmesan.
2. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until crusts are golden and crisp and cheese is melted. Top each with arugula leaves.

Does the one that shows up in a cardboard box on my doorstep count?

When I get ambitious to make pizza, I use a regular dough recipe, but I use olive oil on the pizza pan and sprinkle cornmeal in the oil.  For some reason the crust seems to get crispier that way.

DH likes everything, C only likes pepperoni, and Amelia can't have dairy.  Pizza in our house, right now at least, is interesting.

I have a dumb question.  @SummerLove21 What's a shallot?

Edit for clarification

It's kind of like an onion, except very small and a little bit sweeter.  I actually leave them off my pizzas...

I actually just made this yesterday https://www.lifesambrosia.com/2013/09/verde-chicken-enchilada-pizza.html (Verde chicken enchilada pizza). It uses one of those recipe starter kits, so it was really easy.
