Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Buffalo Chicken Pizza: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

My husband was not happy when I told him the type of pizza I was making. He is not as adventurous with pizza as I am. He prefers a more "traditional" pizza. If he had his choice the most adventurous he would get would be a Hawaiian pizza. 

When he realized that there was not even pizza sauce on the pizza he questioned how it could be a pizza without pizza sauce. But after his first bite he was surprised how good it tasted. He was wowed by the taste and went back for more and I had to agree, it was really, really, good. 

Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Ingredients:
  • 16 ounces pizza dough
  • 8 ounces cooked and shredded chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
  • red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 500º F.
  2. In a small bowl stir together the shredded chicken and 1-2 tablespoons of the buffalo sauce and set aside.
  3. Roll the pizza dough out into a 12 inch circle and sprinkle with the garlic powder.
  4. Transfer the pizza dough to either a pizza peel, with a small amount of cornmeal spread on it or a pizza pan.
  5. Evenly coat the pizza dough with the remaining buffalo sauce, stopping about 1/2 inch away from the edge.
  6. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the buffalo sauce, followed by the shredded buffalo chicken.
  7. Add desired amount of sliced onions.
  8. If using a pizza peel, transfer the pizza to a preheated pizza stone or place the pizza pan in the oven.
  9. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the crust is lightly browned. Watch the pizza carefully since ovens cook at different rates and you don't want it to burn.
Enjoy!!!
