Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Are you looking for the perfect Super Bowl recipe? Here it is.
My Buffalo Chicken Pizza is the perfect blend of spicy sauce mix, creamy cheese, chewy pizza dough and heavenly cream cheese. Yes, I use cream cheese as the base and then top that with chicken breast tossed in wing sauce and cheese.
 I am a big believer that cream cheese makes the world better.
With only 5 ingredients, this is EASY and scrumptious.

One of the keys is to use Ott's hot sauce, it has amazing flavor and a perfect balance of heat for most people. If you can't find Ott's, then use your favorite wing sauce. I try to make this spicy, but not unbearable because people like all different heat levels and if you have a party, you never know what people like.

Anyway, as you gear up for football this weekend, consider this recipe. It's lighter than wings. I like the flavor of wings, but hate the fattiness and skin. This is skinless chicken and is soooooooooooo much better. Try it and let me know what you think

Buffalo Chicken Pizza
1 ready made pizza crust or naan bread (Stonefire is my favorite)
1 1/3 cups chopped skinless rotisserie chicken (I like to use breast for this)
1/2 cup Ott's hot sauce, plus more for drizzling
8 ounces of cream cheese at room temperature
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Toss chicken with hot sauce, stir to coat and set aside.

Spread cream cheese evenly over your pizza crust. When covered, spread chicken out across the pizza.

Top with cheese and then a slight drizzle of more hot sauce.

Bake 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted to your desired consistency.

Note: Not every store carries Stonefire Pizza Dough, which also makes naan. It's usually kept next to the Naan. It's awesome though.
