HOW TO COOK BUFFALO CHICKEN PIZZA

 

Ingredients:

• 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, enough for 12-inch pizza)

• 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

• 1/3 cup buffalo wing sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for extra flavor)

• 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles (optional)

• 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing (for drizzling)

• 1/4 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)

• Olive oil (for brushing the crust)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.

2. Prepare the chicken: In a bowl, toss the shredded chicken with the buffalo wing sauce until well coated.

3. Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, stretch or roll the dough to your desired size and thickness (about 12 inches).

4. Assemble the pizza:

   • Place the dough on a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

   • Lightly brush the edges of the crust with olive oil for a nice golden finish.

   • Evenly spread the buffalo chicken over the dough.

   • Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the top.

   • Add blue cheese crumbles if using.

5. Bake: Transfer the pizza to the oven (or onto the pizza stone) and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

6. Finish and serve:
