Ingredients

• 1 pizza dough/crust (homemade or store bought, 10-12 inch)
• 1 cup cooked shredded chicken
• ½ cup buffalo sauce
• ½ cup ranch dressing
• ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
• 1 tablespoon chopped green onion (garnish)

Method

1. Preheat the oven to the highest temp possible (mine goes up to 550°F) and place the pizza stone in the oven if you have one.
2. In a small bowl, combine the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce and set aside.
3. Sprinkle the pizza peel with semolina to prevent the dough from sticking, then shape/stretch your dough gently with your hands into a 10 or 12-inch circle (don’t use a rolling pin). Before adding any toppings, make sure that the pizza can slide off onto the pizza stone easily. If not, just lift it up gently and sprinkle with more semolina. Don’t stretch the dough too quickly, and start working it from the center. Leave the edges puffed up for a great pizza shape and bubbles.
4. Spread ¾ of the ranch sauce on the dough, pile the chicken over the ranch. Top with mozzarella cheese, and blue cheese.
5. Brush the edges of the pizza with olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 4-5 minutes, then switch on the broiler and bake for 3-5 more minutes but keep an eye on it as the top bubbles and browns. Remove from the oven, allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, drizzle with the remaining ranch sauce, slice and serve.
