Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked and shredded chicken, Buffalo sauce, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and ranch seasoning mix. Stir until well combined.
On a clean, lightly floured surface, roll out the refrigerated pizza dough and cut it into squares (about 3×3 inches).
Place a spoonful of the chicken mixture onto the center of each square. Fold the dough corners up and pinch to form a tight seal.
Place the bites seam-side down on the lined baking sheet. Brush them with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
Serve warm with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
Notes
These bites are best hot from the oven but still great slightly cooled. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
