Ingredients
  

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

4 whole-grain or classic flatbreads

1 cup fresh arugula

1 cup goat cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a more intense flavor.

    Preheat the Grill: While the chicken marinates, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you’re using a grill pan, place it on the stove and set to medium-high heat to warm up.

      Grill the Chicken: Once the grill is hot, carefully place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill grates. Grill each side for about 6-7 minutes, until the chicken has nice grill marks and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). When done, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

        Grill the Peaches: While the chicken rests, place the peach halves, cut side down, directly on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes, or until they develop beautiful grill marks and softens just slightly. Once done, remove from the grill and cut the peaches into wedges.

          Assemble the Flatbread: Lay each flatbread on a clean surface. Start by adding a handful of fresh arugula on each flatbread, followed by slices of grilled chicken and grilled peach wedges. Generously crumble goat cheese over the top of every flatbread.

            Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: To enhance the flavors, drizzle balsamic glaze over each assembled flatbread, adding a balance of sweetness and acidity.

              Serve: For a finishing touch, garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired. Slice each flatbread into triangles and serve warm for a delightful meal.
