Description

A quick and easy Buffalo Chicken Skillet Pizza that brings the spicy, tangy flavors of Buffalo wings to a crispy pizza crust, all made in one skillet.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound pizza dough, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery
  • Ranch or blue cheese dressing for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Stretch or press the pizza dough into a round slightly smaller than the skillet. Carefully place the dough into the hot skillet; it will sizzle.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and set. Flip the dough and cook the other side for 1 minute.
  5. Remove the skillet from heat. Spread the buffalo wing sauce over the crust evenly.
  6. Top with shredded chicken, then sprinkle mozzarella and blue cheese over the top.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  8. Brush the crust edges with melted butter. Sprinkle with green onions and celery.
  9. Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing if desired. Slice and serve.

Notes

For extra heat, add more buffalo sauce or top with sliced jalapeños. The skillet pizza can be made with store-bought or homemade pizza dough.
