Ingredients
DOUGH
- 1 cup water warm
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
TOPPINGS
- ¼ cup ranch dressing plus more for drizzling
- ½ cup buffalo sauce plus more for drizzling
- 4 cups rotisserie chicken shredded
- 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese shredded and divided
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded and divided
- parsley chopped for garnish, optional
Instructions
DOUGH
- In a large bowl, combine yeast, water, and sugar. Stir and let it rest 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl combine olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and garlic.
- Pour half of the oil mixture into the yeast mixture. Set the remaining oil aside.
- Add flour and stir to combine.
- Add dough to a greased bowl and cover with a tea towel. Rest for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
ASSEMBLY
- When ready, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the ranch dressing, buffalo sauce, and shredded chicken.
- Pour the remaining oil mixture into a 12-inch, cast-iron skillet. Use a pastry brush to coat the pan.
- Add half the dough to the skillet and work the dough to the edges. Use your fingers to create dimples in the dough.
- Top the dough with 1 cup of the chicken mixture, ½ cup of the cheddar cheese, and ½ cup of mozzarella.
- Fold the other half of the dough out onto a sheet of parchment paper. Use your hands to form the dough into a 12-inch circle. Invert the parchment paper over the cheese and carefully peel back the paper, leaving the top layer of dough in the skillet.
- Use your fingers to gently dimple the top of the dough. Top with the remaining chicken mixture and bake for 12 minutes.
- After 12 minutes, top with the remaining cheeses and bake an additional 14-16 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- When done, drizzle extra buffalo sauce and ranch dressing over the pizza. Serve hot, garnished with parsley (optional).
