Ingredients

200-gram Pizza Dough Ball- You can use a pizza dough ball of any size and roll it out using a rolling pin. I have used homemade leftover pizza dough for this recipe, which is the popular Bobby Flay’s Pizza dough recipe. It is an easy recipe, and you can get the pizza dough ready in 3-4 hours with this recipe.

4 tbsp Buffalo Sauce—You can use any buffalo sauce, but I didn’t want this recipe to get too spicy, so I used buffalo ranch sauce. This sauce adds flavor and gives the pinwheels or pizza rolls a nice, creamy, tangy kick.

1 cup shredded chicken—Spread some shredded chicken around and use as much as you want. I usually do not go overboard with the chicken and try to cover the dough as evenly as possible, just like a pizza.

3/4 cup Mozzarella cheese—You can now finally spread some mozzarella cheese. You do not need a lot of mozzarella cheese, but make sure you spread it evenly and do not overfill these buffalo chicken pizza rolls/ pinwheels. Cutting them gets difficult when you overfill them, so ensure you fill them evenly and just enough. Do not go overboard with the fillings.

2 tbsp Sesame Seeds—Roasted sesame seeds are good on these pinwheels or pizza rolls and look good sprinkled on top of them.

Salt and Pepper—You should drizzle a good amount of salt and pepper on these pizza rolls; the quantity depends on you. You can add more or less, depending on your taste and liking. I just sprinkle both on top, but it is optional.

Tips to cook this recipe-

1. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled buffalo chicken pizza rolls for about 1 hour. This helps the ingredients firm up, making cutting the dough into perfect pinwheels easier.

2. Rest: After cutting the pinwheels, let them rest for 15-30 minutes. This brings the pizza dough to room temperature and allows for a good rise while baking. Be cautious not to leave them out for more than an hour due to the chicken and cheese, which can spoil.

3. Preheat: Preheat your oven to 200°C (about 400°F) for 15-20 minutes before baking. Proper preheating ensures the pizza rolls cook evenly and quickly, enhancing flavor.

4. Top with Sesame Seeds: After cutting the pinwheels, sprinkle sesame seeds on top and gently press them down. This helps them toast nicely during baking.

5. Prepare the Pan: Grease your baking pan with oil or butter to prevent sticking. Parchment paper is also a good idea, as it simplifies cleanup and prevents the cheese from sticking to the pan.
