Ingredients
For the dough:
– 2 cups warm water
– 2 tsp sugar
– 1 tsp active dry yeast
– 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp salt
– 2 tbsp olive oil
For the toppings:
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup cooked, shredded chicken (such as rotisserie chicken)
– 1/4 cup buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
– 1/4 cup chopped green onions (such as scallions)
– 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast is activated. Add the flour, salt, and olive oil, and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until it has doubled in size.
3. Prepare the toppings: In a bowl, mix together the shredded chicken and buffalo wing sauce until the chicken is well coated.
4. Assemble the pizza: Punch down the dough and roll it out into a circle or rectangle shape. Place the dough on a greased pizza pan or baking sheet. Spread the mozzarella cheese evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Top the cheese with the chicken mixture, green onions, and blue cheese (if using).
5. Bake the pizza: Bake the pizza in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Serve and enjoy: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice the pizza into wedges and serve hot.
Tips
– Use a pre-made pizza dough or crust to save time.
– Adjust the level of heat in the buffalo wing sauce to your liking.
– Add some diced bell peppers or onions to the pizza for extra flavor.
– Serve the pizza with a side of ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
