Buffalo Chicken Grilled Pizza

Buffalo Chicken Grilled Pizza

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
2 tbsp. butter
6 oz. hot sauce
1 c. bleu cheese dressing (Marie's is best)
10" ready-made pizza crust, or 1 ball of prepared pizza dough
1 1/2 c. shredded Mozzarella cheese

Boil chicken for about 30 minutes and shred.  In separate pan, melt butter and hot sauce together, then stir in chicken.  Roll out pizza dough, making sure that it isn't too thin.  Flour both sides of the pizza dough.  Transfer dough to preheated grill over low heat.  When dough is done on one side, it will be a brown-ish color.  Flip the dough over and  spread bleu cheese on.  Top with hot sauce/chicken mixture and mozzarella cheese.  Remove pizza from grill when it is a brown color.

WARNING:  In the ingredients picture, there is Frank's Extra Hot Sauce.  DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT get this extra hot sauce unless you like extremely spicy things.  I accidentally picked some up at the store, and it was SPICY!  I think my boyfriend and I each had 2 glasses of water with dinner.  Besides this extra hot sauce, the pizza was delicious!!! :)
The ingredients
Boil and shred chicken.  I used about 1 lb. chicken (4 chicken tenders)
Place chicken and butter in saucepan
When the butter is melted, the sauce will look like this.
Add chicken to the hot sauce/butter mixture
Roll the pizza dough out... make sure it isn't too thin!
I always bring a tray out to the grill with everything I need on it... it makes it so much simpler!  On the right is the Pampered Chef Mega Lifter.  It is the best invention for grilled pizza... if you don't have one of these, a couple of spatulas will work.  If you plan to make a lot of grilled pizza though, I definitely recommend getting one of these!
The pizza on the grill... Grilled pizzas never turn out round!
The pizza will look like this when it is ready to be flipped.
The pizza flipped over... I guess it is a little over-done.  Whoops!!!
As soon as you flip it over, spread the bleu cheese on
Top it with the chicken mixture
Then put the Mozzarella cheese on top of that.  After you put the cheese on top, close the lid of the grill to give the cheese a chance to melt.

Finished pizza, straight off the grill!
