Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball Pizza dough
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast (shredded or diced)
- 0.333 cup Buffalo sauce
- 0.25 cup Ranch or blue cheese dressing
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Cornmeal (optional, for crust)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while it preheats.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to your desired thickness and shape. If using cornmeal, sprinkle it onto the baking sheet or pizza peel to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, toss the shredded or diced chicken with the Buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
Brush the pizza dough with olive oil, leaving about an inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Spread the Buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the pizza dough.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken and sauce.
Carefully transfer the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two. Drizzle ranch or blue cheese dressing over the top.
Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh parsley, if desired. Slice and serve hot.
