Grilled Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Ingredients

1 large skinless

boneless chicken breast half

2 pinches Montreal steak seasoning

or to taste

⅓ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)

2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)

2 pieces tandoori naan bread

1 teaspoon olive oil

or as needed

½ cup blue cheese dressing (such as Marie's®)

or to taste

2 tablespoons diced red onion

8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese

Whole Wheat and Honey Pizza Dough

BBQ and Grilling

Directions

Step 1

Season chicken breast with Montreal steak seasoning. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag and pour 1/3 cup hot pepper sauce into the bag. Seal bag and rub hot sauce into chicken. Transfer bag to the refrigerator and marinate for 12 hours or overnight.

Step 2

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 3

Remove chicken from the bag and discard marinade. Cook the chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a cutting board to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

Step 4

Dice cooled chicken into bite-size pieces. Toss chicken and remaining 2 tablespoons hot sauce together in a bowl.

Step 5

Brush each naan with olive oil; cook on the grill until golden and toasted on one side 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and transfer naan pieces toasted-side up to a baking sheet. Spread blue cheese dressing on the toasted side of each naan. Top each with diced chicken and red onion. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over the top.

Step 6

Return naan to grill and cook until cheese is melted and bottom is toasted and golden 5 to 10 minutes more. Remove from grill slice into pieces and top with lettuce and tomato.
