Nicole makes an easy copycat recipe for Costco’s iconic chicken bake. Filled with juicy chicken, smokey bacon, and melted cheese, this oven-baked stuffed pizza crust tastes even better than what you get with a Costco membership!

Let pizza dough rest at room temperature about an hour before using. Preheat oven to 350. Season chicken with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil. Place chicken breast in skillet, seasoned side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook one more minute.
Add just enough water to fill the bottom of the pan and remove pan from heat. Place pan in oven and cook until internal temperature reaches 165, about 17-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand until cool enough to handle. Chop chicken and set aside. Increase oven temperature to 400.
Sprinkle flour on to a large work surface. Divide pizza dough into 3 portions. Roll each portion into a large circle about 12-13 inches wide. Spread dressing evenly over dough circles leaving a 1 inch border. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese over dressing. Reserve 2 tablespoons shredded italian cheese blend and set aside. Top dough circles evenly with chicken, bacon, green onions and remaining Italian cheese blend. Fold outer left and right sides slightly over the filling. Roll the bottom of the dough circle over the filling and then roll towards the top edge until fully wrapped. Pinch edges to seal and use hands to work into a long long shape about 12 inches long. Place filled dough, seam side down, on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Brush beaten egg over tops of dough and sprinkle evenly with cheese blend. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon shredded parmesan cheese. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
