Prepare the ingredients
1 Prepare the ingredients

Remove the spreadable butter from the refrigerator to soften. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Remove any husks and silks from the corn; cut the kernels off the cobs. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onions. Halve the tomatoes. Halve the bread horizontally.

2 Cook the rice

Carefully rinse the rice (sifting through for any impurities). Drain thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 2 cups of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork. Add the softened butter and stir to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

Bake the chicken
3 Bake the chicken

Meanwhile, line two sheet pans with foil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with salt, pepper, and the spice blend. Transfer to one sheet pan. Bake 18 minutes. Leaving the oven on, remove from the oven. Evenly top the chicken with the monterey jack. Return to the oven and bake 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked through.* Remove from the oven.

4 Cook the vegetables & finish the rice

Meanwhile, in a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the corn kernels and sliced onions; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until softened. Add the halved tomatoes, red wine vinegar (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), roasted red peppers, and oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until combined. Turn off the heat. Leaving the rest in the pan, transfer half the cooked vegetables to the pot of cooked rice. Stir to combine.

Assemble & bake the flatbread
5 Assemble & bake the flatbread

In a bowl, combine the pork, Italian seasoning, and as much of the red pepper flakes as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be; season with salt and pepper. Place the halved bread on the remaining sheet pan, cut side up. Evenly top with the tomato sauce, fontina, ricotta, mozzarella (tearing into bite-sized pieces before adding), remaining cooked vegetables, and seasoned pork (crumbling into bite-sized pieces before adding); season with salt and pepper. Bake 17 to 19 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are lightly browned and crispy and the pork is cooked through. Remove from the oven. Let stand at least 2 minutes.
