Naan Bread Pizza Recipe

Naan Bread Pizza uses naan flatbread as a crisp-but-soft base topped with ranch dressing, cooked chicken, bacon, red onion, and mozzarella cheese. Air frying browns the cheese and crisps the edges quickly, making a handheld, flavorful pizza alternative.

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

Servings
  • 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

  1. Make sure your bread will fit in your air fryer basket and cut it to fit if necessary.
  2. Shred the chicken, crumble the bacon and dice the onion.
  3. Spread the ranch dressing around the flatbread, getting close to the edges.
  4. Top it with the shredded chicken, bacon and red onion.
  5. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the flatbread.
  6. Gently place it in the air fryer basket, making sure not to knock off the toppings as you move it.

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.
