Fennel and Chicken Flatbread

Categories: Pizza

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 bulb fennel, quartered, cored and thinly sliced, plus 1 tablespoon chopped feathery tops for garnish
• 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 4 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, very thinly sliced crosswise
• 2 6-1/2-inch whole-wheat pitas, or eight 4-inch whole-wheat pitas
• 1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese
• Freshly ground pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 500°F.

2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.

3. Add fennel and bell pepper and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

4. Add chicken and cook another 5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.

5. Place pitas on a baking sheet and top each with an equal portion of the chicken and vegetable mixture; sprinkle with cheese and pepper. Bake until the cheese melts and turns golden, 10 to 15 minutes.

6. Sprinkle with chopped fennel tops and serve warm.
