Ingredients:
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 1 pizza dough (store-bought, allowed to sit out for about 20 minutes)
- 8 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese (part-skim works fine)
- 3 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup Franks Wing Sauce
- 1/3 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
Directions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken into cubes, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet and cook the chicken until done. Add 1/4 cup of wing sauce to the cooked chicken, stirring to coat evenly. Let it simmer briefly, then remove from heat and let cool.
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F.
- Prepare the Dough: On a well-floured surface, spread out the pizza dough into a long rectangle shape.
- Assemble the Garbage Bread: Spread ranch or blue cheese dressing, along with the remaining 1/4 cup of wing sauce, evenly across the dough. Add the cooled chicken on top, followed by a layer of mozzarella and cheddar cheese. For an extra kick, drizzle a bit more wing sauce on the cheese.
- Roll and Bake: Carefully roll the dough into a pinwheel shape, ensuring the ends are tucked in to prevent spillage while baking. Place the assembled garbage bread on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
- Rest and Serve: Allow the Buffalo Chicken Garbage Bread to cool for five minutes before slicing into delectable portions and serving.
Tips for Optimal Cooking: Some ovens may differ in cooking times. To ensure an evenly cooked garbage bread, position the rack in the middle of the oven. Alternatively, adjust the temperature to 400 degrees if needed, allowing for a slightly longer cooking time.
Buffalo Chicken Garbage Bread is a versatile treat suitable for various occasions. Whether as a crowd-pleasing appetizer at parties or a flavorful snack for game nights, its savory blend of buffalo chicken and cheese offers a delightful eating experience.
