Instructions

Preheat Oven and Prepare Pizza Stone: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat thoroughly.
Roll Out Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into about a 12-inch circle and place it onto a piece of parchment paper.
Brush Edges: Lightly brush the edges of the dough with olive oil to help develop a golden crust.
Toss Chicken in Sauce: In a small bowl, toss the shredded cooked chicken with buffalo wing sauce until fully coated.
Assemble Pizza Base: Spread ranch or blue cheese dressing evenly over the dough as your sauce base.
Add Cheese Layers: Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses over the dressing.
Add Toppings: Evenly distribute the buffalo chicken and thinly sliced red onions on top, then cover with the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
Bake: Carefully transfer the pizza along with the parchment paper onto the heated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbling and slightly browned.
Finish and Serve: Remove the pizza from the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions or fresh parsley if desired, slice, and serve hot.

Notes

Adjust the spice level by selecting mild, medium, or extra-hot buffalo wing sauce according to your preference.
For extra creaminess and tang, drizzle additional ranch or blue cheese dressing over the pizza just before serving.
Make sure to preheat the pizza stone or baking sheet thoroughly to achieve a crispy crust.
You can substitute cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience.
