Ingredients (Serves 4-6):
1 tube (13.8 oz) refrigerated pizza dough
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 1/2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works great)
6 strips cooked and crumbled bacon
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the
Ingredients
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook and crumble the bacon if not already prepared. Shred the cooked chicken and set both aside.
Step 2: Roll Out the Dough
3. On a lightly floured surface, unroll the refrigerated pizza dough into a rectangle (about 12×8 inches).
Step 3: Assemble the Stromboli
4. Spread the ranch dressing evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
5. Sprinkle the shredded chicken evenly over the ranch layer.
6. Add the crumbled bacon, followed by the mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
Step 4: Roll and Seal
7. Carefully roll the dough into a log starting from one of the long sides. Pinch the seams and ends to seal them tightly. Place the log seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5: Add the Egg Wash
8. Brush the beaten egg over the top and sides of the stromboli to give it a shiny, golden crust. Sprinkle garlic powder and dried parsley on top for added flavor.
Step 6: Bake
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7: Slice and Serve
10. Let the stromboli cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 1-inch pieces. Serve warm with extra ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
Tips for Success:
Make Ahead: You can assemble the stromboli a few hours ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until ready to bake.

Serving Idea: Pair with a fresh green salad or a side of roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
