Naan Bread Pizza Recipe
Description
This recipe assembles toppings on naan bread starting with a ranch dressing base that adds moisture and tang. Cooked chicken and crumbled bacon introduce savory protein and texture, balanced by sharp red onion slices. A sprinkle of shredded mozzarella melts over the top during air frying at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
Cooking in the air fryer crisps the edges of the naan while gently browning the cheese, resulting in a pizza that is both crispy and tender. The toppings meld together while retaining distinct flavors and textures.
This pizza offers a quick, customizable meal with a smaller portion size compared to traditional pizza. The notes also suggest baking in a 450°F oven on a cookie sheet as an alternative, along with topping variations like traditional, veggie, Margherita, BBQ, or Hawaiian styles.
Ingredients
- naan bread
- 1/4 cup chicken cooked
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
- 3 lices Bacon cooked
- 2 tablespoons red onion
- 3 tablespoons mozzarella cheese shredded
Instructions
- Make sure your bread will fit in your air fryer basket and cut it to fit if necessary.
- Shred the chicken, crumble the bacon and dice the onion.
- Spread the ranch dressing around the flatbread, getting close to the edges.
- Top it with the shredded chicken, bacon and red onion.
- Sprinkle the cheese on top of the flatbread.
- Gently place it in the air fryer basket, making sure not to knock off the toppings as you move it.
- Air fry at 350 degrees F for 5-7 minutes. It is done when the edges of the bread and the cheese start to brown.
Notes
- Alternatively, bake on a cookie sheet at 450°F for 10-12 minutes until cheese melts and begins to brown.
- Try variations such as traditional pepperoni, veggie toppings, Margherita style with fresh mozzarella and basil, BBQ pulled pork, or Hawaiian ham and pineapple.
