Favorite Eats : Buffalo Chicken Wing Pizza

If your family loves pizza and wings this pizza will hit the spot on so many levels. Being from Upstate New York and attending College in Buffalo we are very familiar with the famous Buffalo Wings.... no, not Buffalo Wild Wings... True New York State Buffalo Wings.

This recipe is from my husband's family and my sister in-law makes it all the time.. it is one of the easiest pizza's to make.... so easy we should probably make the kids make it for us.

Ingredients:

Your favorite Pizza Crust... Check out my favorite here Pizza Crust
You can really use any store bought crust or make your own it's totally up to you... but I think the thinner the crust the better.

We usually make 3-4 8inch size pizzas

-Blue Cheese (a semi chunky variety we like Marie's) - One large jar
-Cooked Chicken breast about a pound chunked or shredded which ever you like
-Buffalo Wing Sauce- this can be any kind you like, homemade, store bought.. whatever. We use Franks Buffalo Wing sauce - to taste
-Mozzarella Cheese - 3-4 cups or how ever much you like!

As you can see the ingredients are really basic and all about how much you want of each.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450

Make your pizza crust ( be sure to poke holes in the crust so that it doesn't bubble up) and precook, this will ensure the crust is partially cooked before you add the toppings. It will also keep your toppings from burning while you wait for the crust to cook through.

While crust cooks prepare chicken with buffalo sauce - cut or shred chicken to what ever size you like. Mix with Buffalo Sauce until all is coated. Again use as much or as little buffalo sauce as you prefer.

Remove crust from oven let cool a few minutes then begin adding toppings.
1. Spoon blue cheese over entire crust (use as much or as little as you want)
2. Add buffalo chicken, ensure chicken is even spread on pizza, you can play around with how much chicken you want on the pizza. We like a thin layer, think adding pepperoni.
3. Top with mozzarella cheese, enough to cover pizza, again the amount is up to you.

Cook pizza for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Simple right!?!

This recipe can easily be changed and made to your liking. It is for sure always a hit in our house, all the flavors mix so well together and the crunch of the crust puts it over the top!
