Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 2 large naan breads
- 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce, homemade or store-bought
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Toppings
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or chopped
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted and halved
- 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup fresh spinach leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh dill or parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the naan pizzas.
- Prepare the base: Place the naan breads on a baking sheet. Spread a generous layer of tzatziki sauce evenly over each naan, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow during cooking.
- Add toppings: Evenly scatter the cooked chicken over the tzatziki-covered naan. Next, distribute the thinly sliced red onions, halved cherry tomatoes, pitted and halved kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese across the top.
- Season: Lightly drizzle the olive oil over all the toppings. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences, enhancing the overall flavor of the pizza.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges of the naan are crisp and turn a golden brown color.
- Add fresh greens: Remove the naan pizzas from the oven and immediately top with fresh spinach leaves. The residual heat from the pizza will gently wilt the spinach, adding freshness and color.
- Garnish and serve: Garnish with chopped fresh dill or parsley for an aromatic finish. Slice the pizzas and serve hot for a delicious meal.
Notes
- You can substitute the chicken with grilled tofu or chickpeas for a vegetarian version.
- Homemade tzatziki sauce can enhance the flavor, but store-bought works well for convenience.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or cucumber slices for more crunch.
- Use gluten-free naan if you need to make this recipe gluten-free.
- This pizza is best enjoyed fresh; leftovers can be reheated in the oven to maintain crispness.
