Just a few easy steps and a few simple ingredients and you, too, can be enjoying this tonight! Quick and easy to make.
If you are using your own chicken, pat the chicken breast dry and trim off any fat, etc. and discard. Sprinkle all over with oregano, tarragon and salt.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 8 to ten minutes per side until cooked through. The inside temperature should register 165*F/74*C. when done.
Once cooked, remove from the pan and leave to rest for 10 minutes then cut or shred into bite sized pieces.
Preheat the oven to 375*F/190*C/ gas mark 5. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Lay the flat bread on top.
Whisk the BBQ sauce together with the garlic. Brush the top of the flat bread evenly and generously with the BBQ sauce, leaving a bit of an edge all around the flatbread.
Sprinkle with the Mozzarella cheese to cover.
Add the chicken, coriander, onions and chopped peppers. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes until the bread is browned, everything is heated through, and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Leave to stand for a few minutes. Drizzle with additional BBQ sauce and cut into squares or manageable pieces to serve.
Notes
If you wish you can use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking your own chicken for this. If doing so just toss the shredded chicken with the seasonings in the recipe for the chicken and proceed as per the recipe instructions for putting the flat bread together.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, reheat in the oven, air fryer or microwave. You can also freeze any leftovers in an airtight zip lock bag or freezer container for up to 3 months.

I had a son who used to live on things like mini pizzas. My youngest son. I used to worry that he would get sick from malnutrition. He was incredibly fussy. He would go through stages.
One state was what I called the "white" stage. He would only eat white bread and white rice. Sometimes with corn niblets. Hot dogs. Frozen pizza pockets.
He would eat toast occasionally, but it had to be just the perfect color. It could not be too dark or too light. I don't know why we catered to him so much. Probably because he was the youngest of five. We all fussed over him.
My oldest son would eat anything. He still enjoys eating pretty much anything. He has a very adventurous palate. My oldest daughter did not like potatoes (except if they were deep fried) or fish. My second oldest daughter didn't like soups or stews. My middle son would eat just about anything and was especially fond of cheese. My youngest son . . . if you looked up fussy in the dictionary you would see his photograph I am sure.

HOW TO COOK FROZEN MINI PIZZA IN THE AIR FRYER
It's such a simple thing. I wish I had thought of this before. It would have saved me from eating a lot of burnt and over cooked frozen pizzas!
Preheat your air fryer to 360*F/185*C with the basket(s) in the air fryer for 3 to 5 minutes.
Remove the basket(s) and place the pizzas, frozen, in the basket(s). In my air fryer you can cook more than one at a time. Just make sure that you do not allow the pizzas to touch and that you don't overcrowd the air fryer.
Air fry for 4 to 7 minutes (rotating them from top to bottom and bottom to top halfway through the cook time if you have an air fryer like mine.) The edges should be crisp and the cheese melted and any toppings should be bubbling. If not return to the air fryer for another minute or so.
Remove from the air fryer using a spatula or tongs and allow to cool for a few minutes before cutting and serving.

Believe it or not I never tasted Pizza in my life until I was about 15 years old. The Winter Carnival at our High School here in town was doing a coffee house in the New Gym on the Saturday night of the Carnival and they were serving pizzas as the food.
It was love at first bite for me. Pizza was just not something we ever had in our home and there were not that many pizza places around back in the day. Now there are easily over 10 different places in the local area to get pizza.
