Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water (about 110°F) with sugar and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  4. 4

    Let Dough Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Buffalo Chicken Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare Chicken

    Shred the cooked chicken breast and mix it with buffalo sauce in a medium bowl until well-coated.

  2. 6

    Prepare Cream Cheese

    In a separate bowl, soften the cream cheese to room temperature and mix until creamy.

  3. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) to prepare for baking the pizza.

  4. 8

    Roll Out Dough

    Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to fit your pizza stone or baking sheet.

  5. 9

    Assemble Pizza

    Spread the cream cheese evenly over the rolled-out dough, then layer the buffalo chicken mixture on top, followed by shredded mozzarella and blue cheese crumbles.

  6. 10

    Bake Pizza

    Place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly.

  7. 11

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions, slice, and serve hot.
