Instructions

Preheat oven and prepare pizza stone: Preheat oven to 475°F. If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat.
Shape and prepare pizza dough: On a floured surface, roll out pizza dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet or pizza peel. Brush the edges with olive oil.
Coat chicken with buffalo sauce: In a medium bowl, toss cooked chicken with buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
Spread creamy base sauce: Spread ranch or blue cheese dressing evenly over pizza dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
Layer toppings: Scatter buffalo chicken evenly over sauce. Top with mozzarella and cheddar cheeses. Add red onion slices and blue cheese crumbles if desired.
Bake until golden and bubbly: Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until crust is golden and cheese is bubbling and lightly browned.
Finish and serve: Remove from oven. Sprinkle with chopped chives or green onions. Cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Notes

For extra spice, add additional buffalo sauce on top before baking.
This pizza is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Feel free to customize toppings based on personal preferences.
