Ingredients
  

  • 1 recipe pizza dough (1 pound)
  • 1 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella
  • 1 ½ cups shredded chicken
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped chives
  • ½ cup diced green onion

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Roll out your pizza dough into a thin sheet about 12 inches wide. Transfer your dough to a circular baking dish coated in olive oil or nonstick cooking spray.
  • Dice your fresh mozzarella and then top your pizza dough with the Buffalo sauce, cheese, shredded chicken, and chives.
  • Bake your pizza for 12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and top with the diced green onions.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Ingredient Substitutions & Options
  • Both store-bought and homemade pizza dough work perfectly for this recipe.
  • While Buffalo Wild Wings sauce is my go-to choice, any buffalo sauce brand you enjoy will deliver delicious results.
  • Fresh mozzarella creates a superior melt with that coveted gooey texture compared to pre-shredded varieties. Look for it in logs near your grocery store's deli counter.
Preparation Tips
  • For effortless chicken shredding, use an electric hand mixer with beater attachments on medium speed to quickly break down cooked chicken in a mixing bowl.
Storage Tip
  • Refrigerate remaining pizza for up to 4 days using airtight containers or individually wrapped slices in aluminum foil.
