Ingredients

  • 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour + extra for dusting
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 3/4 cup water 10 to 12 TBS
  • 1 stick butter cut into 1/2-inch pieces and at room temperature
  • 2 TBS extra virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces thinly sliced or shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 grilled boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into 1/4-inch thick pieces
  • 2 medium ripe tomatoes sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
  • 1 cup fresh arugula leaves
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Assemble all your ingredients together.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the butter and mix on low speed until well incorporated, approximately 2 minutes. While the mixer is running, slowly add the water one tablespoon at a time until the mixture forms a dough around the hook.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces and pat them into round disks. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or light a charcoal or gas grill. Dust a work surface lightly with flour. Roll out each piece of dough into an 8 to 10-inch circle, approximately1/8-inch thick. Brush each circle of dough with extra-virgin olive oil and grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove the flatbreads from the grill and set them aside while you gather the ingredients for the filling.
  • Layer one-half of each flatbread as follows: mozzarella cheese, chicken, tomatoes, arugula, salt and pepper, and another layer of cheese.
  • Fold the flatbread over the filling and place back on the grill just to melt the cheese and warm the piadina through, approximately 2 minutes.
  • Wrap the piadina in parchment paper or napkins and eat them with your hands.
