Ingredients
Scale
1 cup (225g) low-fat cottage cheese
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
12 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast
Instructions
Step 1: **Prepare Cottage Cheese Flatbread Batter:** In a blender or food processor, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, large egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps remain.
Step 2: **Bake the Flatbread:** Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Pour the cottage cheese mixture onto the center of the parchment paper and spread evenly into a thin rectangle (approximately 8×10 inches). Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the flatbread is golden brown and firm. For extra crispiness, carefully flip it and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet.
Step 3: **Cook the Chicken:** While the flatbread bakes, pat the chicken breast dry. Season it with salt, pepper, and any additional desired spices. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it's cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C). Remove from heat, let rest for a few minutes, then shred or slice thinly.
Step 4: **Prepare Fillings and Assemble:** Gather your desired wrap fillings, such as shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, avocado, or a light dressing. Once the cottage cheese flatbread has cooled enough to handle, carefully peel it off the parchment paper and lay it flat. Spread a thin layer of your chosen dressing onto the flatbread.
Step 5: **Roll and Serve:** Evenly distribute the shredded chicken and your chosen vegetables over one half of the flatbread. Tightly roll the filled flatbread from one end to the other, forming a wrap. If desired, slice the wrap in half diagonally before serving immediately.
Notes
Leftover flatbread stays fresh in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days; for optimal texture, assemble wraps right before serving.
To bring back that lovely crispness to leftover flatbread, briefly reheat it in a dry skillet over medium heat or a toaster oven until warmed through.
Get creative with fillings: try adding a spoonful of roasted red pepper hummus, quick-pickled onions, or even some crumbled feta cheese for an amazing flavor boost.
Don't underestimate the power of the flip! Baking for an additional 5-7 minutes after carefully flipping the flatbread is the secret to achieving maximum crispiness.
