Open in Pepper →Buffalo chicken pizza takes the wings everybody fights over and puts them on a crust you can slice up and pass around. It's spicy, it's cheesy, and it uses up chicken you already cooked.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on game nights, on Fridays when nobody wants another baked chicken breast, and on the evenings when a flatbread and a bottle of ranch is the whole plan.
Every recipe here is a real weeknight version: the Buffalo Chicken Flatbread Pizza with shredded chicken and a ranch drizzle, a Buffalo Chicken Pizza built on a pre-made crust with mozzarella, a ground chicken version with parmesan, and a grilled buffalo chicken pizza with smoked bacon and grilled red onions.
Toss chicken in sauce first
Coat the shredded chicken in buffalo sauce before it hits the crust so every bite is seasoned, not just the top.
Pre-bake the crust
Give a pre-made crust or flatbread 5 to 6 minutes in a 425°F oven before topping so it stays crisp under the sauce.
Go easy on sauce
Stick to about a cup of buffalo sauce total. Too much and the cheese slides off in one sheet when you cut it.
Drizzle ranch after baking
Add the ranch dressing once the pizza is out of the oven and rested 2 minutes, so it stays cool and creamy against the heat.
