Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until you achieve a rice-like texture.
Microwave the cauliflower rice in a bowl for about 8 minutes, stirring halfway through, until it becomes soft.
Once cooled a bit, transfer the cauliflower rice into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully incorporated.
Place the cauliflower mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a pizza crust about 1/4-inch thick.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, until golden and firm.
While the crust is baking, cook the bacon slices in a pan over medium heat until crispy. Remove from heat and chop into small pieces.
Remove the crust from the oven and spread the ranch dressing evenly over the top.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese and half of the cheddar cheese over the ranch dressing.
Top with diced chicken, bacon, red onion slices, and cherry tomato halves.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the toppings.
Return the pizza to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes before garnishing with fresh parsley.
Slice and serve the pizza warm, enjoying the low-carb deliciousness!
