Golden stromboli roll filled with spicy buffalo chicken, ranch, and melted cheese, great for sharing and hearty meals.
# Ingredients Needed:
→ Chicken Filling
01 -
2 cups cooked shredded rotisserie chicken
02 -
½ cup buffalo wing sauce, divided
→ Sauce Mixture
03 -
¼ cup ranch dressing
04 -
¼ cup buffalo wing sauce
→ Dough and Cheese
05 -
1 ball pizza dough, thawed if frozen
06 -
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
07 -
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
# Step-by-Step Directions:
01 -
Toss shredded chicken with ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce in a bowl until evenly coated. Let sit to absorb flavors.
02 -
Combine ranch dressing with remaining ¼ cup buffalo sauce until smooth and evenly blended.
03 -
On a floured surface, roll pizza dough into a 12x15 inch rectangle. Let rest if it shrinks and reroll.
04 -
Spread buffalo-ranch sauce evenly over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Distribute sauced chicken and sprinkle both cheeses evenly on top.
05 -
Carefully roll dough from one long side, pinching seams and ends tightly to seal filling inside.
06 -
Place roll seam-side down on greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush top with olive oil if desired. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 30 minutes until golden and hollow sounding when tapped.
07 -
Let the roll rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing with a sharp serrated knife using gentle sawing motions.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Seal edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
02 -
Letting the roll rest after baking helps maintain neat slices without filling oozing out.
03 -
If dough shrinks while rolling, rest it briefly to relax gluten before continuing.
