Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 ball (about 12-inch size) pizza dough
- 1.5 cups (shredded) cooked chicken breast
- 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
- 0.25 cup ranch dressing
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons (melted) unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 cup (thinly sliced) red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) green onions
- 2 tablespoons (optional) blue cheese crumbles
- 2 tablespoons (for dusting) all-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer the dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy handling.
In a small bowl, toss the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.
Brush the edges of the pizza dough with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder for extra flavor.
Spread the ranch dressing evenly over the center of the dough, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese over the ranch base, followed by the buffalo chicken mixture.
Top the pizza with sliced red onions, the remaining mozzarella cheese, and the shredded cheddar cheese.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and blue cheese crumbles, if desired.
Slice and serve immediately. Pair with extra ranch dressing or buffalo sauce on the side for dipping!
