Always a great day when I get to chat with my radio crush: Kevin Fell on Juice FM. Today Kev & I chatted Super Bowl grub and a simple & delicious pasta dish – perfect for Valentine’s Day!!
Buffalo Chicken Pizzas
Basket of hot wings meets pizza. I’m in!! Watching the BIG game never tasted so good!!
1 lb (500 g) roughly chopped cooked chicken
3 tbsp (45 mL) hot sauce (heat level of choice)
½ cup (125 mL) pizza sauce
⅓ cup (75 mL) original flavour BBQ sauce
4, 7- inch pitas
2 cups (500 mL) shredded mozzarella
½ cup (125 mL) roughly chopped green onion
1 carrot, cut in thin matchstick pieces
1 celery rib, cut on a thin bias
½ cup (125 mL) Char’s Dilly Ranch Dressing (click here for recipe)
- Toss chicken with hot sauce and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F (200 C).
- Stir together pizza sauce and BBQ sauce. Place pitas on baking sheets (you will likely need to use two baking sheets) lined with parchment paper. Spread sauce evenly between pitas.
- Divide cheese and chicken evenly between pitas.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven for about 15 minutes (rotating pans halfway) or until cheese is bubbling and edges of pitas are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and cool slightly.
- Divide green onion, carrots and celery evenly between pizzas.
- Drizzle each pizza evenly with Char’s Dilly Ranch Dressing and serve. Makes 4 pizzas.
Tip: ~ fan of blue cheese (omg, I LOVE blue cheese)? Crumble some of your favourite stinky cheese on each pizza before serving.
~ up the flavour game and use grated smoked mozzarella instead of regular
