These buffalo chicken flatbread pizzas take everything you love about the classic and shape it into individual, easy-to-share portions on soft, homemade dough. Juicy thighs get tossed in a sticky-spicy blend of hot sauce, sweet chili sauce, and honey, then piled on top with melted cheese and baked until golden.
Key ingredients
Honey: softens the dough and helps tame the heat of the buffalo sauce. Out of honey? Swap it for sugar in the sauce instead.
Flour: we use all-purpose flour. It’s versatile, works reliably, and is almost always already in your pantry.
Milk: we use whole milk for a richer dough, but 2% works just as well.
Chicken thighs: are the base for the topping. Chicken breast is an alternative, but thighs stay juicier and more flavorful once cooked.
Sweet chili sauce and hot sauce: form the sweet-and-spicy backbone of the sauce. To make it more kid-friendly, swap the hot sauce for extra sweet chili sauce or ketchup.
Why the second rise matters
Once the dough is topped with the chicken filling, let it rise once more before baking. This keeps the dough light and fluffy. Important: only add the chicken once it’s cooled. Warm chicken on the dough slows down the yeast, which means the dough won’t rise as well.
Good to know: while the dough goes through its first rise (about an hour), you’ll have just enough time to cook the chicken and let it cool, so you can move straight into the second rise once the dough is ready.
The sauce makes the difference
The sauce is what really makes this buffalo chicken. Hot sauce brings the heat, sweet chili sauce brings the sweetness, and honey rounds it all out. To keep things milder for kids (or a calmer night in), swap the hot sauce for extra sweet chili sauce or ketchup, and the honey for sugar.

Tips
Let the dough rise until it’s roughly doubled in size.
Don’t roll the dough out too thin. A slightly thicker base gives you light, airy pizzas that can properly hold the filling.
Instructions

Prepare all ingredients.

In a deep bowl, combine the warm milk, honey, and yeast. Mix well and let sit for 5 minutes.

Add the olive oil, flour, and salt. Knead for 10–12 minutes until smooth.

Cover the dough and let it rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, and black pepper. Cook for 5–6 minutes.

Stir in the sweet chili sauce, hot sauce, and honey. Mix well and simmer for 2 minutes. Let cool.

Deflate the dough and divide it into 6 equal pieces. Shape each into a ball.

Take one ball and roll it flat into an oval.

Place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with hot sauce or sweet chili sauce, then sprinkle with shredded cheese.

Divide the chicken mixture over the dough. Let rise for 30 minutes.

Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12–18 minutes, or until golden brown.
