1 Food Prep

2 Grill Prep
Fuel: We recommend Kingsford® Original Charcoal Briquets
Method: Direct-Heat Grilling
Temp: 450°F (High Heat)
Carefully hold your hand about 5” to 6” above the grate, and refer to the temperature settings below:
• High Heat (450° to 550°F):
2 to 4 seconds
• Medium Heat (350° to 450°F):
5 to 6 seconds
• Low Heat (250° to 350°F):
8 to 10 seconds
Make sure your clothing doesn’t touch the grate, and always move your hand away from the heat before you feel discomfort.
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
3 The Cook
Cook your barbecue sauce in the stainless steel pot for 10 minutes to allow flavors to bloom. Remove your barbecue sauce from the grill and set it aside.
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Place your chicken thighs onto the grate and cook them for 5–7 minutes on each side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F. When they’re ready, remove your chicken thighs from the grill and place them onto a cutting board to rest.
To put together your flatbreads, start by spreading your Asian barbecue sauce over your flatbreads.
Then, add your shredded mozzarella cheese to your flatbreads.
Place your cooked chicken thighs into a small mixing bowl and shred them. Sprinkle your shredded chicken on top of your flatbreads.
Grill your flatbreads for 2–3 minutes to melt the cheese, then transfer your grilled flatbreads to a cutting board. Top your flatbreads with chopped scallions and serve.
