Ooey-Gooey Buffalo Chicken Pizza Pockets: A Flavorful Delight

Ingredients:
- 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup cooked shredded chicken
- ½ cup Buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- Ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Mix the Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the shredded chicken with Buffalo sauce, ensuring the chicken is well-coated in the tangy, spicy goodness.
- Prepare the Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface and cut it into six equal squares.
- Assemble the Pockets: Place a generous scoop of the Buffalo chicken mixture in the center of each square. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top, and if you enjoy a bold, tangy kick, add some crumbled blue cheese.
- Seal the Pockets: Fold each square over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges firmly with a fork to seal the pockets.
- Egg Wash for Perfection: Brush the tops of each pocket with the beaten egg for a beautifully golden and crispy crust.
- Bake to Perfection: Transfer the pizza pockets onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
- Serve and Enjoy: Let them cool for a minute before serving. Pair them with ranch or blue cheese dressing for the ultimate dipping experience.
