Buffalo Chicken Pizza

buffalo chicken pizza franks red hot

What do when you've bought a 3.78 liter jug of Franks Red Hot? Buffalo all the things!!! Besides making classic buffalo wings and chicken fingers, the Seoulmate and I decided to make a buffalo chicken pizza. 
After a long day yesterday, which included a baseball game, and dinner and drinks with friends, it was nice to relax today and cook a delightful meal at home. Surprisingly, the Simmering Seoulmate and I work extremely well together in the kitchen. We divide up the tasks and try to clean as we cook, in order to avoid a daunting mess at the end and to have available space to work in our tiny Korean kitchen. 
This pizza was super simple to make and dinner came together quite quickly. We enjoyed our slices with a nice side of broccoli, but I think it might have gone better with a nice crisp salad to balance out the spiciness of the pizza.

Ingredients
2 large chicken breasts
3/4 cup Franks Red Hot sauce
2 tbsp butter
2 cups shredded pizza cheese
1/2 of a red onion finely chopped
Italian seasoning
1 ball of pizza dough

Directions
Preheat oven to 400 ̊ F (200 ̊ C). Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes and cook in a pan over medium high heat with a little olive oil and a dash of salt and pepper.  While the chicken is cooking, prep your pan and add the dough.  Next, create your buffalo sauce. Melt the butter and stir it into the hot sauce. Pour about a 1/4 of the buffalo sauce onto the pizza crust. Sprinkle the cheese over and add red onion. Add all but about 2 tbsp of the remaining buffalo sauce to the chicken, and fold so the chicken so it is nicely coated with sauce. Spoon the chicken over the pizza and drizzle what’s left of the buffalo sauce across the top of your pizza. Cook pizza for about 25 minutes and enjoy! This pizza is quite spicy so make sure you’ve got a nice glass of something to wash it down.
Makes 1 pizza.
