Make this fusion pizza using naan bread as a base, topped with flavorful grilled chicken and cool, fresh tzatziki sauce. This is a quick weeknight dinner idea.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces naan bread (about 6-inch size)
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup homemade tzatziki sauce
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
  • 1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced into ribbons
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, toss the chicken with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook the chicken: Grill or pan-fry the seasoned chicken over medium-high heat until cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
  3. Prepare the naan base: Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the naan bread directly on the oven rack or a baking sheet. Bake for 3-5 minutes until the naan is slightly crisp on the edges.
  4. Assemble the pizzas: Remove the naan from the oven. Spread a generous layer of tzatziki sauce evenly over each naan base, leaving a small border.
  5. Add toppings: Distribute the cooked chicken pieces over the tzatziki layer. Top with sliced red onion and feta cheese.
  6. Finish and serve: Return the pizzas to the oven for another 3-5 minutes until the cheese is slightly softened and the naan is fully heated through.
  7. Garnish: Remove from the oven. Top each pizza with cucumber ribbons and sprinkle with fresh dill and a squeeze of lemon juice. Slice and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a crispier base, lightly toast the naan in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes per side before adding toppings.
  • If you prefer a store-bought option, use a good quality, thick tzatziki sauce for the best flavor.
  • You can use an air fryer to cook the naan base for 3 minutes at 375°F for a very crisp result.
