Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza Recipe with Homemade Bread Dough
First of all make your Pizza Dough..this makes 2 Pizzas! Make one now and freeze one for later!
-
2 Cups warm water
-
2 T brown sugar
-
2 T yeast
Whisk together and let the yeast proof..this means you let it sit and get foamy/bubbly (about 10 minutes)
Then add:
-
2 T olive oil
-
1 1/2 t salt
-
5 Cups flour ( you can use any kind of flour) If you use wheat..be sure and mix only 1/2 wheat with 1/2 white or it will be too dry.
Mix thoroughly and then knead for 5 minutes, after kneading, put back into bowl and cover with a cloth, let rise for about an hour. When done, split dough in half and roll out 2 pizzas.

How to make chicken bacon ranch pizza
Cook your Chicken and Bacon…Any amount you want..I usually just fry, grill or bake the chicken..do what’s easiest for you.
Oh I have a little secret about cutting up the raw Chicken and Bacon…because I hate the mess of cutting up raw meat into bite-sized pieces …including bacon..before cooking! I don’t like the germs on my cutting board and it’s just plain messy. Ewww. I know…I’m such a baby..LOL
Many years ago I started using kitchen shears for cutting raw meat.
… I don’t know what got me started but now I wouldn’t do it any other way!
Roll out your dough onto a floured surface.
Top with Pizza Sauce
Top with cooked Chicken, Bacon and Onions..if you want
Bake for about 15 minutes in a preheated oven at 425 degrees!
YUM! Enjoy!! Your Family will LOVE it!!
You can also make this ahead and freeze for later! Just freeze after you make it and cook later 🙂
