Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450 g) pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup (150 g) cooked chicken breast, shredded or chopped
  • ½ cup (120 ml) buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 cup (100 g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup (50 g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup (120 ml) mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) sour cream
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) buttermilk
  • 1 tsp dried dill weed
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a thin rectangle approximately 12 x 8 inches (30 x 20 cm).
  3. Slice the dough into roughly 1.5-inch (4 cm) squares or triangles and transfer to the baking sheet, spacing about ½ inch (1 cm) apart.
  4. Lightly brush the top of each chip with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  5. Bake the dough chips for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp around the edges.
  6. While chips bake, toss shredded cooked chicken in buffalo wing sauce until evenly coated and set aside.
  7. Remove chips from oven and top each chip with a small spoonful of buffalo chicken, then sprinkle shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses evenly over the top.
  8. Return to oven and bake for another 5-7 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  10. Drizzle the creamy ranch generously over the hot buffalo chicken pizza chips and serve immediately.

Notes

Roll dough thin but not paper-thin (about 1/8 inch). Brush oil evenly to get golden crispy edges without greasiness. Avoid overloading chips with chicken or cheese to prevent sogginess. Watch oven carefully during second bake to avoid burning cheese. Make ranch ahead and refrigerate for 30 minutes for best flavor. Reheat leftovers in oven or toaster oven to maintain crispness; avoid microwaving.
