Notes
- You can use both store bought and homemade pizza crust for this recipe.
- We like to use Buffalo Wild Wing sauce in this recipe, but feel free to use your favorite brand of Buffalo sauce!
- Fresh mozzarella will melt down better and end up being more gooey than pre-shredded cheese. You can find a log of fresh mozzarella near the deli section of your local grocery store.
- If you are looking for a quick and easy way to shred your chicken then try using an electric hand mixer. Place your cooked chicken in a bowl and use the beater attachments to shred the chicken on a medium speed.
- Store your leftover pizza in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can keep the pizza in an airtight container or wrap individual slices in tin foil.
- Reheat your pizza 1-2 slices at a time in the microwave for 45 seconds.
