Ingredients

Pizza Dough

  • 1 pound homemade pizza dough or store bought

Toppings

  • ⅔ cup ranch dressing
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1½ cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F to ensure it’s hot enough for baking the pizza evenly and achieving a crispy crust.
  2. Prepare dough: Roll out the pizza dough into a 13-15 inch circle and place it on a pizza pan to prepare for toppings.
  3. Add ranch dressing: Spread ⅔ cup of ranch dressing evenly over the dough, creating a flavorful base for the pizza.
  4. Apply cheese: Sprinkle 3 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the ranch layer for a gooey and melty texture.
  5. Add chicken and bacon: Distribute 1½ cups of chopped cooked chicken and 4 strips of cooked, crumbled bacon evenly over the cheese.
  6. Bake pizza: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly and melted.

Notes

  • You can use store-bought or homemade pizza dough depending on your convenience and preference.
  • Precook the chicken and bacon to ensure they are properly cooked before adding to the pizza.
  • For extra crispy crust, consider pre-baking the dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
  • If you prefer spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the toppings.
  • Serve with a side salad for a complete meal.
