Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat up.
Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness, approximately 12 inches in diameter.
Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a piece of parchment paper for easy transfer to the oven.
Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil to prevent it from getting soggy.
Spread the ranch dressing evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a margin at the edges for the crust.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the ranch layer.
Distribute the plant-based chicken evenly on top of the cheese.
Sprinkle the crumbled vegetarian bacon over the chicken.
Add the sliced red onions and cherry tomatoes evenly over the pizza.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before slicing and serving.
