Procedure

Preheat convection oven to 425°F. Heat oil in large skillet or pot over medium high heat. Add onions and carrots and cook until brown and caramelized, stirring often and adding broth or water as needed to keep from burning. Turn heat down to medium low and add raisins, remaining broth or water, and chicken strips, season with salt and pepper. Stir until completely combined and warmed through, remove from heat and set aside. To assemble flatbreads, drizzle each crust with 3 ounces of raisin mole sauce, top with 2/3 cup chicken mixture and 1/2 cup of cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 6 to 8 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven, top with optional garnish, and serve immediately.
