Ingredients

Scale

Filling Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked and shredded or chopped chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crispy bacon pieces
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Dough

  • 1 sheet pizza dough or puff pastry (approx. 10 x 16 inches)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: Cook and shred or finely chop the chicken breast. In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken with ranch dressing, mozzarella cheese, crispy bacon bits, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
  2. Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough or puff pastry into a rectangular shape about 10 by 16 inches. This size allows for even filling and secure rolling.
  3. Assemble the Bake: Spread the filling evenly across the dough, leaving a one-inch margin on all sides. Roll the dough from one long edge like a jelly roll, sealing the edges by pinching together or brushing with water to prevent leakage. Slice into individual pieces or leave as one loaf based on preference.
  4. Bake to Golden Perfection: Place the assembled chicken bakes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
  5. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Allow the bake to cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving. This helps the filling to set for easier slicing and preserves the creamy texture.

Notes

  • Spread the filling evenly for balanced bites of chicken, cheese, and bacon.
  • Moisten dough edges before sealing to avoid leaks during baking.
  • Avoid overfilling to prevent the dough from bursting open.
  • Use freshly cooked chicken and crispy bacon for best flavor.
  • Let the bake rest before slicing to prevent filling spillage.
