Yield:

4 servings

For the flatbreads

Ingredients

1 cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
1 cup self-rising flour, plus more for dusting the counter
Olive oil, for brushing

Instructions

Set a small, oven-safe skillet on the grate of your grill over a medium direct fire (but turn the handle of the skillet away from you so that you’re not tempted to grab it when it’s hot). Close the grill and let the heat come up to 375° to 400°.

Next, make the dough: In a medium bowl, stir together the yogurt and flour, then knead the dough a few times in the bowl until smooth. Divide into four equal portions, generously dust the counter with flour, and roll out each portion to a 7-inch circle.

Be sure to have all the topping ingredients prepped before you open the grill. Brush one side of each piece of dough with olive oil, then lay the dough, oiled side down, on the grate. Now brush the top sides with oil as well. Grill until browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side (depending on the size of your grill, you may need to do this in two batches).

For the topping

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 cups halved cherry tomatoes
¼ teaspoon sugar
¼ teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon salted butter
3 garlic cloves, very thinly sliced
¾ cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
¼ cup minced fresh basil leaves
¼ cup minced fresh mint leaves
Chili flakes, for garnish

Instructions

Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet, then add the tomatoes. Sauté the tomatoes for 1 minute, then add the sugar, salt, and butter and sauté for an additional minute. Finally, add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, then remove the pan from the heat (watch that handle!).

To serve the flatbreads, spread about 3 tablespoons of yogurt on each flatbread, then top each with equal portions of the tomatoes (with some of the juices), the herbs, and a sprinkle of chili flakes. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil, if desired, and serve.
