Step 1
Preheat oven to 450°F. Roll out the 1 lb pizza dough on a floured surface into a thin rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Step 2
Transfer dough to a baking sheet. Brush with 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 3
Cook 6 slices bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove and crumble, reserving 1 tbsp drippings.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add 2 sliced onions and cook over medium until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.
Step 5
Spread the onions over the dough, then scatter the crumbled bacon and 1.5 cups shredded cheese evenly on top.
Step 6
Bake until the crust is golden and cheese is bubbly, about 12-15 minutes.
Step 7
Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped chives, slice, and serve warm.
