ingredients & substitutions
Pizza Dough
For this stromboli recipe you can use any pizza dough you have. I use trader joes gluten free pizza dough or wholly gluten free pizza dough. Both are gluten free and roll out nicely with a rolling pin. If you are not gluten free you can use any pizza dough you want. Feel free to even call your local pizza shop too! They usually sell dough that isnt rolled out yet!
Mozzarella Cheese
For this stromboli recipe you can use either shredded or sliced mozzarella. To make this buffalo chicken stromboli recipe dairy free, use vegan or dairy free cheese. To make this stromboli recipe low in fat, use low fat, lite or fat free cheese.
Chicken Fingers
This buffalo chicken stromboli recipe is an easy recipe because it uses chicken fingers instead of having the chicken cutlets made from scratch. I used gluten free chicken fingers. I find the trader joes or perdu gluten free chicken fingers are the best. To make this a healthier, lower carb option use grilled chicken or shredded chicken.
Buffalo Sauce
This buffalo chicken stromboli obviously uses buffalo sauce! To make this recipe dairy free make sure to use dairy free or vegan buffalo sauce. Make this buffalo chicken stromboli recipe spicier by using more buffalo sauce. To make this stromboli recipe milder, use less buffalo sauce.
taste & texture
These buffalo chicken strombolis are spicy, and filled with buffalo flavor. Once baked, the dough gets crispy around the edges and chewy in the center. The strombolis are filled with oozing, melted cheese.
