# Steps:

Pat chicken breasts dry and, if necessary, halve them for even cooking. In a small bowl, combine the dried oregano, tarragon, and salt. Sprinkle the seasoning blend over both sides of the chicken.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken and cook for 8 to 10 minutes per side, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 74°C. Remove from heat, let rest briefly, and cut into bite-sized pieces.

Preheat oven to 190°C. Lay flatbreads on a large baking sheet. Brush each generously with barbecue sauce and evenly distribute the minced garlic.
04 -
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the sauced flatbreads. Top with cooked chicken, red onion, and chopped red bell pepper. If desired, add red pepper flakes and parmesan.
05 -
Place the baking sheet on the center oven rack and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until the flatbread edges are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbling.

Remove flatbreads from the oven and cool briefly. Top with chopped cilantro and additional barbecue sauce as desired. Slice and serve warm.
