Buffalo-Style Chicken Pizza

Buffalo-Style Chicken Pizza is a delicious fusion of classic pizza and the spicy flavors of Buffalo chicken wings. Here’s what typically goes into making it:

Ingredients:

  • Pizza Dough: Your choice of store-bought or homemade.
  • Chicken: Cooked and shredded or cubed, often tossed in Buffalo sauce.
  • Buffalo Sauce: A mixture of hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot) and melted butter.
  • Cheese: Mozzarella, blue cheese, or a combination of both.
  • Ranch or Blue Cheese Dressing: For drizzling over the top or as a dipping sauce.
  • Vegetables: Optional additions like red onion, celery, or green onions.
  • Additional Toppings: Some recipes include bacon, bell peppers, or jalapeños.

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Typically around 450°F (230°C).
  2. Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and place it on a pizza stone or baking sheet.
  3. Cook the Chicken: If not already cooked, sauté or bake the chicken pieces until fully cooked.
  4. Toss the Chicken in Buffalo Sauce: Mix the cooked chicken with Buffalo sauce to coat it evenly.
  5. Assemble the Pizza: Spread a thin layer of Buffalo sauce over the pizza dough as the base. Add the Buffalo chicken pieces on top, followed by a generous layer of shredded cheese.
  6. Add Optional Toppings: Sprinkle any additional toppings like red onion or celery.
  7. Bake: Place the pizza in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Finish and Serve: Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing, and sprinkle with green onions if desired. Slice and serve hot.

This pizza combines the spicy, tangy flavors of Buffalo chicken with the cheesy, comforting elements of pizza, making it a popular choice for game day, parties, or a fun dinner.
