I use hummus instead of tzatziki when I want a dairy-free version.
-
Sometimes I add shredded lettuce or spinach for extra greens.

For a spicy twist, I drizzle with harissa or chili oil.
-
I love using leftover grilled chicken or gyro meat for added flavor.

storage/reheating

If I have leftovers already assembled, I refrigerate them in an airtight container and reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5–7 minutes. I add fresh toppings after reheating to keep the textures crisp.
FAQs
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! I prep all the toppings ahead and store them in separate containers. I assemble just before eating for the best texture.
What flatbread should I use?
I like using naan, pita, or any soft flatbread that holds up to toppings. Even a tortilla can work in a pinch.
Can I use raw veggies or should I roast them?
I usually keep the veggies raw for a crisp, fresh bite, but roasted peppers or onions also taste amazing here.
Is there a vegetarian version?
Definitely. I swap the chicken for roasted chickpeas, falafel, or grilled vegetables for a satisfying meatless option.
How do I keep the flatbread from getting soggy?
I toast the flatbread first, avoid overloading with wet toppings, and add sauces right before serving to keep everything crisp.
Conclusion
Greek Chicken Flatbread is everything I want in a quick meal—fresh, flavorful, and easy to throw together. It’s a great way to enjoy bold Mediterranean flavors without much fuss. Whether I’m feeding a crowd or just myself, this recipe is always a hit.
