Super Bowl Snack Recipes: Mike Marusarz spices things up with Buffalo Chicken Pizza

41 Action News Anchor Mike Marusarz has two great food loves – buffalo chicken wings, and pizza.

So, why not combine them to make the perfect Super Bowl Sunday snack?

Mike’s Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Ingredients:

• Flatbread or cooked pizza dough
• Olive oil
• Buffalo sauce
• Mozzarella
• Shredded rotisserie chicken
• Poultry seasoning
• Cooked Bacon
• Hot peppers
• Red onions
• Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• Ranch and/or blue cheese

 
Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Brush olive oil onto flatbread or pizza crust. This will make it crispier when it comes out of the oven.
3. Spread buffalo sauce on flatbread or pizza crust. You don’t need as much as a regular pizza sauce since it’s a thinner consistency, and spicier.
4. Place mozzarella on pizza, followed by shredded chicken.
5. Season chicken with a dash of poultry seasoning.
6. Add bacon, hot peppers such as jalapenos or habaneros, red onions and sharp cheddar cheese.
7. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, preferably on a pizza stone if you have one.
8. Let cool for 5 minutes and cut.
9. Serve with ranch and/or blue cheese dressing.

 

Notes:

This recipe is completely customizable! You can use whatever meats and cheeses you like, and adjust the level of spice based on your and your guests' preferences.
