flour tortilla | Bewitching Kitchen

Another recipe that has my name written all over, I was inspired by many versions that kept popping on my feed online, and made my own. I know, the mix of ground chicken, tortilla and pizza sounds crazy, but it was crazy delicious! You could omit the chicken and use sautéed mushrooms (make sure they are sautéed well to evaporate all their water content), for a vegetarian version which will also be considerably lighter.

SMASHED CHICKEN TORTILLA-PIZZA

Lay two tortillas side by side, cover with 1/3 cup ground chicken, season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika.

Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven, add tomato sauce and cheese on top, continue baking for 10 more minutes.

ENJOY!

Comments: This is not the place to use low-carb variations or corn tortillas, they won’t stand well to the high heat treatment with all the toppings. One tortilla was plenty for my lunch, and the second one was still ok warmed in the oven, straight from the fridge. They are better, however, on the day they are made, a few minutes out of the hot oven. If you go light on the tomato sauce, you can eat it like a taco, folding it in half and biting into it. I recommend you not to do that in mixed company, but as I like to say, your kitchen, your rules! It is deliciously messy…
