Ranch Chicken Fajita Pizza

Chicken Fajita Pizza
1 chicken breast
1 Tbsp. fajita seasoning
2 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 red or orange bell pepper
1-2 Tbsp. Ranch Dressing
1 1/2 c. mozzarella cheese
1/4 c. parmesan cheese
1/4 c. monterey jack cheese
Dried Italian Seasoning
Pizza Dough
ps. You can use any combination of cheeses you like, or have on hand.

Season chicken breast with fajita seasoning. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet and cook chicken until done. Set aside.
Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in small pan, and saute onions over medium-low heat until carmelized, adding salt and pepper to taste.
Prepare pizza dough. Spread ranch over entire surface (ranch is mainly to season the dough, so spread thin, with no globs).
Combine cheeses, and put 3/4 of it over ranch. Sprinkle Italian Seasoning over cheese.
Shred or cube chicken breast and layer over cheese. Top with carmelized onions and fresh bell pepper pieces.
Top with remaining cheese.
Bake as directed on pizza dough instructions - usually around 400 degrees for 18 minutes.
