In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and olive oil. Gradually add the yeast mixture, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.

Prepare the Chicken:
Toss the cooked chicken cubes with buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
Assemble the Pizza:
Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle and transfer to parchment paper.
Spread pizza sauce evenly over the dough.
Sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
Top with buffalo chicken.
Bake the Pizza:
Transfer the pizza (with parchment paper) onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake for 10–12 minutes until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle sliced green onions on top for a fresh, crunchy finish.
Slice into wedges and enjoy hot!
Pair with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Enjoy the perfect balance of spicy, cheesy, and savory goodness!
