Ingredients

Garlic White Sauce

  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ¾ cup chicken broth
  • ¾ cup milk
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
  • Salt & pepper

Flat Bread:

  • 1 ⅓ cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup buttermilk, room temperature {I used about 3/4 TBSP lemon juice in regular milk, instead of buttermilk}

Topping Ideas:

  • Grilled chicken
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Sliced fresh tomato
  • Sliced pepper
  • Sliced olives
  • Marinated artichoke hearts
  • Fresh basil
  • Grilled sausage
  • Sliced zucchini

Instructions

  • Garlic White Sauce: Begin my melting the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Then, whisk in the flour, and add chicken broth as the flour/butter mixture thickens. Continue adding the broth and whisking constantly to keep the sauce smooth. Proceed to gradually add in the milk, continuing to whisk the mixture as you go.
  • After that, add in the minced garlic and a dash of salt and pepper. Heat the mixture just until boiling, until the sauce thickens. {Note: I doubled this recipe and used half over fettuccine pasta with grilled chicken the first night. I made these flatbreads the next night, using the rest of the sauce and leftover grilled chicken. Just an idea!}
  • Flat Bread: In a large bowl, combine the flour, oil, baking soda, salt and buttermilk, stir well to combine. Once all ingredients are combined, knead the dough for 30 seconds on a well-floured surface. Next, cut the dough into 12 segments and then cover the dough sections to prevent them from drying out.
  • Proceed to roll each segment of dough into balls and pat them into a flat circle. Then flatten the dough into 6-8" circles using a rolling pin. Place them onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake them in a preheated 350-degree oven for 5 minutes.
  • Assembly: Start with spreading a spoonful of the alfredo sauce on each flatbread, cover the entire surface leaving a little space from the edges so it doesn't spill over. Then add the toppings of your choice, the chicken, then peppers, etc. and then bake again for another 7-8 minutes. I used the oven for everything, but you can cook the flatbread and pizzas on the stove if you'd like. I imagine you could even grill them to avoid heating up the house at all!
  • I made some with more kid-friendly toppings and some for my husband and me with the more adventurous toppings. Serve immediately and enjoy!
