I love these “one pot wonders,” where the veggies and the proteins are all cooked together, and then dumped (or, if you’re so inclined, neatly arranged) on top of a starch. It’s like an all-in-one and a 1-2-3 Eat! combined! You and your family will LOVE this healthy Italian chicken flatbread recipe, so stick it (the recipe, not the actual chicken) in your back pocket, and enjoy!
