Ingredients
- 1 ball pizza dough
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup cooked and shredded chicken
- 8 ounce shredded mozzarella cheese
- 6 slices crispy cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 tablespoon sliced scallions
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) if using a pizza stone, or 450°F (230°C) for a standard baking sheet. Place the rack in the lower third of the oven.
2. Roll out your pizza dough into a 12-14 inch circle and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet or a pizza peel if using a stone.
3. Spread the ranch dressing evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about a half-inch border around the edge for the crust. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ranch base.
4. Top the pizza with the cooked and shredded chicken, distributing it evenly for full coverage. Finish by sprinkling the remaining mozzarella cheese over the top.
5. Place the assembled Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
6. Allow it to cool slightly. Drizzle a little extra ranch dressing over the top if desired. Scatter the sliced scallions over the pizza for a pop of color and fresh onion taste. Slice and serve while hot.
Notes
To ensure your Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza turns out perfectly every time, consider using high-quality store-bought dough if you don’t want to make it from scratch. Don’t hesitate to customize your toppings with additional veggies or different cheeses.
