I’m entirely obsessed with Frank’s. Like genuinely obsessed. I put it on simply about everything.

For example, in the past month I’ve put it in or on my tacos, nachos, wings, popcorn, eggs and now my pizza. I even had a little anxiety issue while pouring the particularly last of the bottle in order for this dish. Clearly I need therapy. But the retail kind not the sit down in a chair and gush about how I’m sickly addicted to Frank’s Red Hot I am.

Because that would be crazy.

These buffalo chicken flatbread pizzas or naanzas (did I only invent something here?) are only another way to fuel my love for Frank’s. They’re simple, flavor-packed and only take 15 minutes!

To Make These Buffalo Chicken Flatbread Pizzas Set out:

• naan – Use regular, garlic or whole wheat (store-bought or from-scratch)
• olive oil – Helps get the crust crisp and get nicely golden brown.
• buffalo sauce – Use from-scratch or store-bought.
• monterrey jack cheese – Or for extra spice use pepper jack. Freshly grated is dependable!
• leftover shredded cooked chicken – Leftover roasted, grilled or use rotisserie.
• blue cheese – Use your go-to!
• green onions – Adds a pop of color and fresh onion flavor.
• blue cheese dressing – Use this greek yogurt version or this blue cheese dip recipeand only thin it out with a little more buttermilk so it can be drizzled.

Start by making the buffalo sauce. It’s pretty unfussy to throw together and only calls for a few ingredients. My buffalo wing sauce is semi-kitchen-made because in our house, using anything other than Frank’s would be illegal. If you have Frank’s on hand, you also probably have butter, garlic powder and cayenne.

Preheat your oven to 425℉ or 220℃.

Place the naan onto a metal, rimmed baking sheet and lightly brush the top side with olive oil.

Next add a couple of spoonfuls of the buffalo sauce onto each naan and spread out leaving a 1/2-inch edge.

You’ll most likely have left over sauce that you can save for pretty much anything that or only double the rest of the pizza ingredients (keeping the sauce recipe the same) to make more pizzas.

Then sprinkle each pizza with the 1-1/2 cups of shredded jack cheese and 1 cup of shredded cooked chicken.

Lastly, sprinkle with freshly crumbled blue cheese.

Next slide the pan onto the middle rack of your preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the crust is golden and crispy.

I wish you could smell this!

Before serving, drizzle each pizza with more buffalo sauce and blue cheese dressing.

Sprinkle with a little freshly ground black pepper and sliced green onions.

Use a pizza cutter to slice the buffalo chicken flatbread pizzas into thirds and serve! Dinner, a kick-butt app or afternoon snack, whatever the reason I have no doubt these naanzas will be devoured!
