# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The combination of tangy BBQ sauce and melted cheese creates that perfect sweet and savory balance everyone craves
  • You can throw it together with leftover chicken or a store bought rotisserie bird making it incredibly forgiving
02 -
  • Do not overload your flatbread with toppings or the middle will get soggy while the edges burn
  • Let the flatbread rest for about 2 minutes after baking so the cheese sets slightly making slicing much cleaner
03 -
  • Brush the edges of your flatbread with olive oil before baking for extra golden crispiness
  • If using fresh jalapeños remove the seeds and membranes to control the heat level
