Blaze Pizza announced the launch of its newest offering, the Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza, available nationwide starting Monday for a limited time. Inspired by the iconic Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich, Blaze’s executive chef, Brad Kent, took an ingredient-focused approach to craft the company’s newest offering, balancing the spice of ghost pepper chicken meatballs with a creamy, vinegary slaw for crunch and zest.
“When we began to think about what a Hot Chicken Pizza would taste like, it was critical that our version delivered a taste profile that paid homage to the unique flavor, crunch and heat of authentic Nashville Hot Chicken,” says Executive Chef and Blaze Pizza co-founder, Brad Kent. “What we created is a harmonious blend of taste and texture by combining spicy peppers with a creamy, tangy slaw to balance things out. Whether you’re a fan of spicy food, or just looking for a new culinary experience, the Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza is for you.”
Along with the company’s signature house-made red sauce, shredded mozzarella, ghost pepper chicken meatballs and slaw, the pizza is also topped with a signature drizzle of Frank’s RedHot, to ensure the pizza delivers on its name.
