Ingredients
  

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

4 flatbreads (store-bought or homemade)

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons chili powder

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust according to your heat preference)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup assorted sliced bell peppers (red, yellow, green)

1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken:

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are well-coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor infusion.

      Preheat the Grill:

        Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for a temperature between 375°F to 450°F (190°C to 230°C). If you are using a grill pan on the stovetop, heat it over medium-high heat until hot.

          Grill the Chicken:

            Once the grill is hot, take the chicken breasts out of the marinade and place them on the grill. Grill the chicken for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through, and the internal temperature registers at 165°F (75°C) on a meat thermometer. After grilling, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.

              Prepare the Flatbreads:

                While the chicken is resting, brush both sides of each flatbread lightly with olive oil. Place them on the grill for 1-2 minutes on each side, just until they are warm and feature lovely grill marks.

                  Assemble the Flatbreads:

                    On each grilled flatbread, evenly layer the sliced grilled chicken, colorful bell peppers, and thinly sliced red onion. Top with a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese. Return the assembled flatbreads to the grill for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt perfectly.

                      Serve:

                        Once the cheese has melted, carefully remove the flatbreads from the grill. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for a burst of color and flavor. Serve with lime wedges on the side for an added zesty kick.

                          Enjoy your Zesty Grilled Chicken Flatbread Wonders, ideal for summer barbecues or a quick and satisfying weeknight meal!
