Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza

I made this pizza for my Grandma's birthday last year.  It was a huge hit so we decided to make it again.

Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Pizza:


1 ball of pizza dough.  I get mine from the grocery store bakery.
2 cups cooked chicken breast halves (chopped and seasoned; I seasoned mine with garlic and italian seasoning)
8 slices cooked bacon, thick sliced is best, cut up
1/4 cup red onion, thinly chopped
Chopped tomato
2 garlic cloves
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
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
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425.

Roll out pizza dough onto your pizza pan or cookie sheet. Prepare sauce.

In saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Mix in the cream cheese and stir until melted. Stir in the whipping cream and garlic powder. Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Decrease the heat and simmer, stirring often. If sauce is too thin, sprinkle in some flour 1 teaspoon at a time. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. It should be creamy.















Spread the ranch dressing on your dough first then spread the Alfredo sauce on top.















Sprinkle some of the mozzarella cheese on the pizza. Add your chopped chicken, bacon, tomato, and sliced onion. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.  I like to have most of my toppings under the cheese but if you like your toppings on top lay all of the cheese down first.















Bake at 425 on the bottom rack of oven for 20 minutes or until crust appears done on the bottom.
