Yield 1 pizza

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb pizza dough
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup Frank's Red Hot® Sauce
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon red cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 oz blue cheese crumbles
ranch dressing, for serving

Steps:

  • Rub raw chicken with salt and pepper - set aside.
  • Melt 2 tbsp butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until the chicken is almost cooked through. It will finish cooking in the oven. Then, remove chicken from the pan and place in a bowl.
  • In the same pan, melt 3 tbsp of butter over medium heat. Whisk in Frank's pepper sauce, white wine vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Add red cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a slow boil and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Pour the buffalo sauce over the cooked chicken and mix until the chicken is covered. If the sauce is too thin, add in 1 tbsp all-purpose flour and mix thoroughly.
  • Preheat the oven to 500°F with a baking stone or a heavy baking sheet inside the oven.
  • Stretch the pizza dough into a 14" thin disk. Place the dough on a lightly floured pizza peel or an upside-down baking sheet.
  • Working quickly so that the dough does not adhere to the peel, top the dough with a thin layer of mozzarella cheese, then add the buffalo chicken and blue cheese crumbles, and finally top with the remaining mozzarella cheese. In addition, you can drizzle some hot sauce on the top.
  • Transfer the pizza to the baking stone (or baking sheet) and cook until the crust is golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with blue cheese or ranch dressing.
  • Enjoy!
