Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 4 flatbreads
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F).
- In a large skillet, brown the ground turkey over medium-high heat, breaking it into small crumbles. Cook until the turkey is completely cooked through and no pink remains, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Drain any excess fat from the turkey and return the skillet to the heat.
- Pour the buffalo sauce over the cooked turkey and stir to coat evenly, allowing the sauce to simmer and caramelize slightly for 2-3 minutes.
- Lightly brush each flatbread with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking and enhance grilling.
- Place the flatbreads on the preheated grill and cook for 1-2 minutes until light grill marks appear.
- Flip the flatbreads and immediately top each with the buffalo turkey mixture, distributing it evenly.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the turkey, allowing it to melt from the grill's heat.
- Close the grill lid or cover the pan to help the cheese melt quickly and evenly.
- Remove the flatbreads from the grill when the cheese is fully melted and the edges are crispy.
- Drizzle ranch dressing over the top of each flatbread.
- Garnish with chopped green onions for added freshness and flavor.
- Slice each flatbread into quarters and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
Tips
- For extra crispy flatbreads, make sure your grill or grill pan is preheated to the right temperature before cooking.
- Use lean ground turkey to keep the dish healthier without sacrificing flavor.
- Don't skip draining excess fat from the turkey to prevent soggy flatbreads.
- If you prefer less heat, adjust the amount of buffalo sauce to suit your spice tolerance.
- For a vegetarian version, substitute ground turkey with plant-based crumbles or grilled vegetables.
- Fresh green onions are key for adding a bright, fresh finish to the dish.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the perfect balance of crispy edges and melted cheese.
