Buffalo Chicken Flatbread Wrap

First off, my apologies about the picture. I was in such a hurry to eat this, I just snapped a quick shot of it. The day before I tried this recipe, I had been to Subway. I went out on a limb and ordered the new flatbread sandwich with buffalo chicken. I was floored. It was soooo good. So naturally, I had to come home and recreate it. If you love soft, chewy flatbread and the incredible taste of buffalo sauce, and crunchy cucumbers and ripe tomatoes, then this is for YOU.  Flat bread recipe from My Sister's Cucina. -Christine

Soft Wrap Bread
3 cups of flour (I use half wheat, half white)
1 1/4 c. boiling water
1/4 cup of potatoe flakes
1 1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbl. oil
1 tsp. instant yeast

1. Place 2 cups of flour into a bowl or dough mixer. Pour boiling water over flour, and stir until smooth. Cover bowl and set aside for 30 minutes.
2. In separate bow., whisk together the potatoe flakes and remaining cup of flour with salt, oil and yeast.
3. Add this to the cooled flour mixture, stir and knead for several minutes until smooth and soft. Add additional flour only if neccessary.
4. Let dough rise, covered, for 1 hour
5. Divide dough into 8 pieces. Cover, and let rise for 15-30 minutes.
6. Roll each piece into a 7-8 inch circle. Cook them separately on the stovetop over medium heat for about one minute per side, until they are flecked with brown spots. Adjust the heat if they seem to be cooking too quickly or too slowly...cooking too quickly means they might be raw in the center, while cooking them too slowly will dry them out.
7. Serve immediately, or cover with a damp cloth. To store, seal in plastic bag.

Buffalo Chicken

1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup Frank's buffalo sauce (you can add more if you love it)
1/2 cube of cream cheese (lowfat is good too)

* Place chicken in crockpot and pour buffalo sauce ontop. Since every crockpot is so different, cook until tender (serveral hours). Stir in the cream cheese the last half hour. Shred with fork.

Assemble the flatbread by adding the shredded chicken. Garnish with sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, and purple onion. Enjoy!
