Toasted flatbreads are loaded with sautéed chicken, wilted kale, and tender red onion, then blanketed in a melted duo of Monterey Jack and Italian cheese blend. A sprinkle of chili flakes adds gentle heat, and a drizzle of honey at the end brings a sweet, savory contrast that ties the whole dish together.

Cooking Steps
Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.
Add onion and kale (for 4 servings, you may need to add kale in batches); season with salt and pepper. (TIP: If pan seems dry, add another drizzle of oil.) Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender and kale is wilted, 4-6 minutes.
While chicken and veggies cook, place flatbreads on a baking sheet and toast on top rack until golden, 3-4 minutes. (For 4 servings, divide between two baking sheets; toast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)
Once flatbreads are toasted, remove sheet from oven. Evenly sprinkle flatbreads with Monterey Jack and Italian cheese blend. Top with chicken and veggies. Sprinkle with chili flakes to taste.
Return to top rack and bake until cheese melts, 2-4 minutes. (For 4, return to top and middle racks.) Transfer flatbreads to a cutting board.

Reviews from our home cooks
This was even better than I expected it would be. Really liked the kale and how well it held up; kale, Italian sausage and red onion were a very good flavor combination. Some kind of a sweet drizzle would have been a nice balance - maybe balsamic glaze or hot honey.
Really tasty and simple meal. Also makes excellent leftovers! It benefits from slightly more cheese to make all the toppings adhere better, but otherwise I was very satisfied with this meal.
This was great tasting and easy to prepare. There seemed to be way more topping than necessary for the Flatbread but I just piled it on. Delicious.
We really like your flatbreads. Although the kale is more work to prepare, it was very tasty on these flatbreads - great combo!
It was very hard to eat. The photos made it kind of look like a pizza, but that's not how it came out. The flatbread was chewy rather than crunchy and the toppings fell off if you tried to pick it up. Also I thought the volume of food was too much for a serving.
This was quick and easy. We added orange peppers to the mix and liked the added flavor.
Love the Italian pork sausage and the Italian chicken sausage. They are so good on the flatbreads.
I thought this was pretty good - it would be 4 stars with maybe a drizzle of ranch or honey mustard on top? I added a little ranch from my fridge and it really put this one over the top.
This was great and portions were clear when eating which was helpful. Loved the left overs as well.
Didn't think this was going to have a lot of flavor, but it was amazing!
