Flatbreads are one of my favorite party foods or easy dinner to throw together. And Buffalo sauce? Easily one of my favorite flavors.

One of the most disappointing experiences at a restaurant included ordering a buffalo chicken wrap and biting into chicken coating into what is known as “bang bang” sauce. Sorry, but bang bang sauce is not buffalo sauce.

This happened at not one, but two restaurants within a few months. But don’t worry, this recipe isn’t deceiving like all of those restaurant menus! This pizza is covered in actual buffalo sauce.

Buffalo Chicken Pizza Ingredients

Ingredients for flatbread: flatbread, buffalo sauce, chicken, blue cheese dressing, mozzarella cheese, and green onions
Ingredients

Flatbread

You can use traditional flatbread, naan, or even mini flatbreads if you want to make individual pizzas.

Chicken

The recipe calls for cooked, chopped chicken. I baked my chicken by seasoning with salt and pepper and baking for 30 minutes or so at 375 degrees. I chopped the pieces up into small 1/2 inch pieces. You could make your chicken in the crockpot, pressure cooker, or buy a rotisserie chicken.

Buffalo sauce

To make this super easy, I just used a store bough buffalo wing sauce. If you want to go the homemade route, try this homemade buffalo sauce!

Mozzarella Cheese

When it comes to mozzarella cheese, there are a few options. We tend to buy our mozzarella in blocks and shred ourselves. You can buy it pre-shredded to make it easier, or if you really enjoy the taste of fresh mozzarella (who doesn’t?) just slice thin and use that on top.

Blue Cheese Dressing

You could use blue cheese crumbled, but I love the extra creaminess that the dressing adds to the flatbread. The buffalo sauce is used sparingly, so it’s not super saucy unless you opt for the blue cheese dressing.

Green Onions

Sliced thinly and used as a topping, you could skip this part, but I wouldn’t recommend it!

Light Olive Oil

Use light olive oil or avocado oil instead of Extra virgin olive oil as you will be baking the buffalo chicken flatbread at a high heat.

Tips For How to Make Buffalo Chicken Flatbread

  1. Make sure you preheat the oven and bake the flatbread for the 5 minutes before adding your toppings. If you skip this step you will end up with a soggy flatbread. No one wants that.
  2. Like a lot of buffalo sauce or blue cheese? Start with the recommended amounts and add more at the end if you need to. Adding a little extra on top adds great visual appeal along with the extra flavor and sauciness.
  3. Cut into small squares for an easy appetizer or large slices for dinner. Serve with some air fried green beans or a side salad for a complete meal!
