# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
02 -
1 teaspoon olive oil
03 -
1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade, thawed if frozen)
04 -
8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
05 -
8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
06 -
1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce, divided
07 -
1/4 cup ranch dressing
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a bowl, toss the cooked chicken with 1/4 cup of buffalo sauce until well coated. Set aside.
02 -
On a floured surface, roll the pizza dough into a long rectangle. In a separate bowl, mix the remaining 1/4 cup buffalo sauce with the ranch dressing, then spread it evenly over the dough.
03 -
Evenly layer the buffalo chicken on top of the sauce, then sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the chicken.
04 -
Roll up the dough tightly from one long end to form a log. Pinch and tuck both ends to seal. Place the roll seam-side down on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
05 -
Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing into thick pieces.
06 -
Serve warm, optionally with ranch, blue cheese, or pizza sauce for dipping.
# Notes:
01 -
Adjust the spice level by using more or less buffalo sauce, or try a milder hot sauce.
02 -
Be sure to seal the ends of the dough tightly to keep cheese and sauce from leaking out.
03 -
Letting the bake rest before slicing helps keep the filling in place.
