Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza

A mommy friend of mine has an amazing food blog and recipe for Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza and we decided to give it a shot this past Wednesday.  Its quite possible this will become a weekly staple around here, its just amazing!

Pizza dough We used a premade wheat dough from Fareway

Topping 

2 cups cooked chicken breasts (chopped)

8 slices cooked bacon (cut up) We used the real bacon salad topping that we always have on hand since I can't cook bacon to save my life

1/4 cup red onion (chopped)

2 cups Mozzerella Cheese (shredded)
1 cup tomatoes (chopped)

Pizza Sauce

1/3-1/2 cup ranch dressing

1/4 cup butter 
1 1/2 ounces cream cheese 
1/2 pint heavy whipping cream 
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese 

Salt and black pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 500.  Place Pizza Stone in oven and let it warm up for atleast 30 minutes.  I used a regular pizza pan and preheated to 450.  Meanwhile, roll out pizza dough and prepare sauce.  In saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Mix in the cream cheese and stir until melted. Stir in the cream and garlic powder. Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Decrease the heat and simmer, stirring often. If sauce seems too thin, sprinkle in some flour 1 teaspoon at a time. Cook and stir for desired consistency. Stir in the parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. 

Spread your ranch dressing on your dough first, next spread your alfredo sauce on the dough.

Sprinkle half of your mozzarella cheese on the pizza. Add your shredded chicken, bacon, tomatoes and chopped onion. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake at 500 (or 450 for regular pan) on the bottom rack of oven for 10 - 12 minutes or until crust appears done on the bottom.
